Looks like $S ebuild variable has wrong value. As kde stuff uses
eclasses, I'm not sure what is the right way to change it. For
usual ebuild it's at the beginning:
"S=${WORKDIR}/${P}" if unpacked directory is the same as the
<package-version>, or "S=${WORKDIR}/_what_ever_the_dir_is" otherwise.

Out of the 'ld' manpage:
-------------------cut here----------------------------------
-larchive
--library=archive
Add archive file archive to the list of files to link. This
option may be used any number of times. ld will search its path-
list for occurrences of "libarchive.a" for every archive
specified.
On systems which support shared libraries, ld may also
search for libraries with extensions other than ".a". Specifically, on
ELF and SunOS systems, ld will search a directory for a
library with an extension of ".so" before searching for one with an
extension of ".a". By convention, a ".so" extension
indicates a shared library.
------------------cut here-----------------------------------
Meaning, that -lpython2.2 can be libpython2.2.a *or*
libpython2.2.so, depending on if it is linked static or
dynamic.
I check the CONTENTS of 2.0 against 2.2, and the only thing
that differs, is that Makefile.pre.in was not installed, which
is fixed now.
Bottom line: koffice's build scripts is broken, or we need
to create a symlink from
/usr/lib/python2.2/config/libpython2.2.a to
/usr/lib/libpython2.2.a
Anybody else have an idea ?

I put in a fix into the koffice ebuild a few hours ago that simply adds -L
/usr/lib/python2.2/config.
The real fix should be to add the -L ... to the output of our python-config
script. I'm about to do that.

I'm working on this, and will commit a fix in an hour or two.
You said you solved this problem locaaly a while ago - in the future, please
submit bug reports on bugs.gentoo.org too, and hopefully get a prompt
response :-)
