Post the output of:
emerge -ptv python:2.5 python:2.6

[Comment 2 Patrick Lauer 2009-08-25 18:42:36 UTC]

Usually re-emerging javatoolkit or just running python-updater fixes this issue

[Comment 3 Claes 2009-08-26 08:02:00 UTC]

python-updater did it. Thanks
Not sure what is an appropriate solution, leaving new for someone wiser to decide.

Incase of any importance:
# emerge -pvt python:2.5 python:2.6

These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:
