I just did an "emerge --sync", and was told to update portage. But it
seems that portage 3.0.8 built with python 3.7 is blocking portage 3.0.9
with python 3.8. I obviously can't remove portage to fix the block <G>.
Note "grep -i python /etc/portage/make.conf" shows no output at all. In
package.use, PYTHON_TARGETS: and PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET: are commented out.
[i3][root][~] grep -i python /etc/portage/make.conf
[i3][root][~] grep -i python /etc/portage/package.use/package.use

Any ideas? The build attempt follows...
