Okay, this should have fixed a lot of broken things.

Do you have such things installed? Or is PyQt accidentally in your /var/lib/portage/world file? emerge -pv --depclean PyQt should show you which stuff pulls it in. If you think nothing needs it, remove it with emerge -Ca PyQt, and try revdep-rebuild again. Or add the kde-sunset overlay with layman. > I admit that I have qt3support as a USE flag.

I do not have PyQt installed. Wonko
