can you try LANG="en_US.UTF-8" emerge mypaint ?

@python

Any idea on how to fix it in a pretty way? Thanks

Got the same bug. Solution works.

[Comment 7 Markos Chandras 2011-03-09 21:28:33 UTC]

I just tried to reproduce it with RU locale and I still can't reproduce it.

So I am closing this as WORKSFORME

Could you please add export LANG="en_US.UTF-8" on src_compile and try to emerge mypaint again? If this works for you then I will add this little hack on the ebuild

[Comment 8 Artem Semendyaev 2011-03-10 08:59:53 UTC]

It seems like scons bug. It tries to execute 'python2.6-config' while in Gentoo python-config is named 'python-config-2.6'. So shell returns error in russian language and scons fails to output it on std.err.
export LANG="en_US.UTF-8" on src_compile works fine
