Re: [gentoo-user] Python and man problems_solved

[Roger Cahn]

Hello all,

Thank you very much for your help: problems solved.

-PYTHON_TARGETS=python2_7 are now defined
-PAGER=most is defined in your environment: Icompiled it again.
Now man emerge works.

Well, I'm now quite quiet...until next problem !!!
Thank you again
Cheers
Roger

I haven't followed this thread up to now, but are you setting this yourself in 
make.conf? It shouldn't be necessary: all packages that rely on python set 
their own targets - and they're best left that way too. If you twiddle with 
your targets yourself, sooner or later you'll find yourself having to 
disentangle a cat's cradle.

$ grep -i python /etc/portage/make.conf
$

I too was grateful for the tip about most. Thanks, Stroller.

It' not in make.conf.
Your remark is judicious   ;-)
