29 This configure line is strange. Look at what it says about gtk:
30
31 ./configure <otheroptions> --disable-python-dbus --disable-pygtk
32 <otheroptions> --enable-gtk <otheroptions> --enable-python-dbus
33 --enable-pygtk --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu
34
35 Try to find out why this strange configure command line is being
36 called (take a look at the ebuild)
37
38 Also, there are other logs you can post. I don't remember exactly the
39 names, but I think there are multiple configure log files like
40 configure.log and configure.error (or something like that) that says
41 exactly why did configure concluded that a certain feature is missing.
42 The log you provided does not say why configure concluded there is no
43 pygtk, but configure usually *does* explain this (is specific log
44 files. Do a little search).
