Description Guido Falk von Rudorff 2010-03-12 08:23:48 UTC
After updating to dev-python/sip-4.9.3-r1 mnemosyne fails to start and prints the following message:

$ mnemosyne 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/mnemosyne", line 11, in <module>
    from qt import *
RuntimeError: the sip module implements API v6.0 but the qt module requires API v5.0

Downgrading to dev-python/sip-4.8.2 resolves the problem. I tried revdep-rebuild and followed the sip-message:

 * Messages for package dev-python/sip-4.9.3-r1:

 * When updating sip, you usually need to recompile packages that
 * depend on sip, such as PyQt4 and qscintilla-python. If you have
 * app-portage/gentoolkit installed you can find these packages with
 * `equery d sip` and `equery d PyQt4`.

Steps to reproduce (without ~x86-Keyword): 
1. Install app-misc/mnemosyne
2. Update dev-python/sip
