Electrum is a lightweight Bitcoin client, implemented in Python, with a GTK or Qt4 GUI. Since this client only connects to a server, not to other peers, I suggest net-misc instead of net-p2p (where the other Bitcoin daemons/clients live). It requires two additional Python libraries which implement AES and ECDSA in pure Python. I will attach these here as well.

Your dev-python/ecdsa needs a s/P/PN/ in the source URI. I've imported this into the bitcoin overlay. It seems to basically work, but segfaulted when I closed it.
Version 0.61 was released and the ebuild needs to change: HOMEPAGE="http://electrum-desktop.com/"
Could you please add an ebuild for electrum-server (https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum-server)?
(In reply to comment #5) > Version 0.61 was released and the ebuild needs to change: > HOMEPAGE="http://electrum-desktop.com/" Good point. I've updated the ebuild to version 1.0 in sunrise (but I'll attach it here as well, for completeness sake).
Created attachment 323818 [details] net-misc/electrum ebuild for version 1.0
Could you update the bitcoin overlay if you get a chance as well?
Its in the tree. I'll be maintaining it with Luke-jr.
