Description * 2008-06-29 23:41:53 UTC 
Not sure when this started but when I try running (seemingly) any equery command there is the error (for example):

unix> equery files firefox
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/equery", line 27, in ?
    import gentoolkit
  File "/usr/lib/gentoolkit/pym/gentoolkit/__init__.py", line 27, in ?
    from threading import Lock
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/threading.py", line 6, in ?
    import thread
ImportError: No module named thread

I tried re-emerging gentoolkit- didn't fix the problem :(

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. equery <any command> <anything>
2.
3.
