You've made the mistake of appearing knowlegable :-)
20 years I've been using Gentoo, I'm about to remove it because I
have not been able to maintain it since the whole python 2.7
deprecation process started.
Given my /usr/portage/package.accept_keywords is down to a
single line:
*/* ~amd64
At this point pretty much anything I try to update bumps into:
I have tried various combinations in package.use/local (i.e.,
separate from zz_autoconfig) of:
nada.
*/* PYTHON_TARGETS="-python2_7"
*/* PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET="python3_6"
*/* PYTHON_TARGETS="-python2_7 python3_6"
*/* PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET="python3_6"
followed by a combinatorial product of -python2_7 python3_{456789}
for the PYTHON_TARGETS and each of the alternatives as PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET.
I've tried setting these in /etc/portage/make.conf also.
One oddity I notice is that emerge and eselect seem out of sync on
the version of python installed:
# eselect python list;
Available Python interpreters, in order of preference:
? [1] python3.7
? [2] python3.6
? [3] python2.7 (fallback)
root@steamer:package.use # emerge --search dev-lang/python;
[ Results for search key : dev-lang/python ]
Searching...

Q: If you have a working Gentoo system, what version of python do
you have installed? What does eselect show you? What are you
using for PYTHON_TARGETS & PYTHON_TARGETS?
Thank you.
