A bit more looking at the ebuild, and more testing, reveals that you must have both the "ncurses" and "readline" USE flags set in order to for python to pull in sys-libs/readline. Note that it will build against a previously loaded sys-libs/readline if only the "readline" flag is set, but it will not pull in the sys-libs/readline package. -- Walter Dnes <waltd...@waltdnes.org>
