  Thank you.  That fixed the problem.  After updating world portage-3.0.9
is now installed, built against PYTHON_TARGETS="python3_8"

Agreed. That's what I did: just updated as usual and all went tickety-boo.

It's a dependency problem that I find that it is not worth to
untangle. I had the exact same problem yesterday on a different
machine.

My advice: skip this and go straight to world update. portage will
most likely figure out the tangle for you, and update itself during
the world update.

[gentoo-user] portage blocking portage update

2020-12-08 Thread Walter Dnes
  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 .
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.
