from what I understood echonest api is gone http://developer.echonest.com/ I don't now which other package depend on it equery d dev-python/pyechonest do not list any package on my system by the way how do you get all ebuild depending on one specific ebuild (including non installed ebuild) ? I think this package should be removed at some point
If the package provides access to an API, which is no longer available, it is unusable. "May 31, 2016 - As of May 31st, The Echo Nest platform will no longer serve requests and developers will need to move over to the Spotify API." http://developer.echonest.com/ You can use the q applets to find ebuilds that mention pyechonest very fast: $ qgrep -H pyechonest | cut -f1 -d":" | uniq dev-python/pyechonest/pyechonest-7.2.1.ebuild dev-python/pyechonest/pyechonest-9.0.0.ebuild media-sound/beets/beets-1.3.13.ebuild media-sound/beets/beets-1.3.3-r1.ebuild dev-python/pyechonest/pyechonest-7.2.1.ebuild dev-python/pyechonest/pyechonest-9.0.0.ebuild media-sound/beets/beets-1.3.13.ebuild media-sound/beets/beets-1.3.3-r1.ebuild
