I thought I'd give this a try, but after installing it and its two 
dependencies (pygtk and libglade - this is a KDE box) I get this:

$ elogviewer --help
  File "/usr/local/bin/elogviewer", line 11
    """
      ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I messed about with that file but couldn't make the syntax work, so I ran 
"emerge -Cav elogviewer" and the file was left behind. Qfile and "equery b 
/usr/local/bin/elogviewer" turned nothing up so I deleted the file.

Now, after remerging elogviewer and the two dependencies I get this:

$ elogviewer --help
bash: /usr/local/bin/elogviewer: No such file or directory

What's going on here? Where did that file come from originally, and why 
is it not being installed now? I've retrieved it from a backup, but how 
did it get in there? It dates from 2007!

Maybe it's just too late at night.
