This is on Funtoo, using ebuilds for Gentoo. So I figured to report the bug here. I think that boto needs its dependency on virtual/python-json to be removed. Thank you. # emerge -vua1 dev-python/boto These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

We don't have that ebuild. http://www.funtoo.org/Reporting_Bugs
