Just unmask the PyQT from unstable, and install it. This is a known bug in bugzilla.

For future compile problems with portage, it would be better if you searched in the gentoo forums or the gentoo bugzilla. You will more than likely get instant answers and fixes.

Thanx again gruven.....

i searched the forums and found duplicates of the same bug linked in the forums...

It worked thanx I should probably search the gentoo forums before asking here or up on the gentoo forums. How long have u been using gentoo ive been using it 4 about 1 year.

About 3 - 4 years. I started with SUSE, and then went straight to Gentoo within the week. I have never looked back. I just can't get what I want with other distros (ie...customization, options, control). Plus, I have been on it so long that the Gentoo way just feels right.
