What about Firefox ?
-- trying to unmerge Python-2.7 tells me that Firefox-60.8.0 requires
"python 2.7.5-r2:2.7[ncurses sqlite ssl threads]".
That Firefox ebuild does indeed require those flags,
but it also contains "PYTHON_COMPAT=( python3_{5,6,7} )".
What is telling Portage that Firefox needs Python-2.7 ?
