There is an error in the code for the python interface for all revisions of -0.11.11. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge /x11-libs/vte-0.11.11-r* 2.from a python shell or script: import vte 3. Actual Results: IDLE 1.0.3 >>> import vte Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in -toplevel- import vte ImportError: dynamic module does not define init function (initvte) >>> I have found a change in the /python Makefile.in line 213: @BUILD_PYTHON_MODULES_TRUE@vtemodule_la_LDFLAGS = -module -avoid-version -export-symbols-regex=initvte In vte-0.11.10 that line is: @BUILD_PYTHON_MODULES_TRUE@vtemodule_la_LDFLAGS = -module -avoid-version -export-symbols-regex initvte It state that that file is auto generated from Makefile.am but I do not see any difference in it that would cause that change.

I missed the -r3 revision that fixes this bug. Bug#6183 was not turned up when I searched before opening this bug. I will close this if the -r3 version fixes it for me.
The -r3 revision fixed it. Thanks. Sorry for the noise. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 6183 ***
typo in bug#... should be 61683
