I have done the migration to python 3.12.
The problem is that portage is pulling in python 3.11.
A python version jump in gentoo is always a horrible work:
Many ebuilds have not been updated and pull in unnecessarily
python 3.11. If you use any of these packages, you need a patched
version of them in your overlay.
The list is not complete, even less if you have USE=python in
some packages.
The most notable package is www-client/firefox which is the only
one which actually *needs* <python-3.12 - the others just have
a broken dependency declaration.

Note also that for quite another number of packages you need the
unstable version, because quite often the stable version
(falsely) claims to require <python-3.12. These are at least
(for xfcbe-base, it is actually only one ebuild, but updating
this requires to have also the other updated or you might
experience runtime errors):

Finally got to adding patched ebuilds to my overlay.
Everything works so far.
This got me wondering though, is there no way to fix this globally
via make.conf instead of adding patched ebuilds to my overlay?
