Re: [gentoo-user] python2 problem
Sorry, so many typos, here it is again :( Hi, I am trying to install the sslpsk python module using pip for python (for tuya-convert) but its not working - python3 works, python2 doesn't. It was working a few months back on a different system. I have installed python 2.7 from portage and followed the wiki (set python_targets, emerge -NuDv etc.), however pip seems to only know how to install for python3. For python 2.7 do I need to go completely manual for installation using old packages?

There is a separate dev-python/pip package providing pip, but it appears this package only supports Python 3 targets (which is reasonable as 2.7 is no longer supported upstream). If you *really* need Python 2.7, you could modify the ebuild of dev-lang/python-2.7 to enable --with-ensurepip, or you could try to make the dev-python/pip package support the python2_7 target, or you could download the source from python.org and configure/build it yourself into a separate directory. However, it is probably worth first checking if there is a release of the software you want to use that supports Python 3 instead. cal
