foomatic-gui is broken as installed, perhaps because of slotted pygtk awkwardness. Unfortunately, python is not my area of expertise...

not gnome, don't assign bugs if you don't know where they should go. This doesn't help you or us.
try to completly remove pygtk and emerge it again
Removing all pygtk instances and reemerging as per comment#2 didn't seem to help. However, I was able to get foomatic-gui to run by removing the slotted pygtk-0.6.11-r1 *AND* commenting out the line pygtk.require("2.0") in /usr/bin/foomatic-gui. Neither step alone was sufficient. Unfortunately, something else in my world file apparently wants the downrev pygtk and keeps trying to pull it in whenever I emerge --update, so this is probably not a satisfactory workaround long-term...
