If the packages were already built with python_3.6 in PYTHON_TARGETS, there should be no rebuilding. It is the change on PYTHON_TARGETS that triggers the rebuild, eselect just chooses from one of the available targets AIUI. -- Neil Bothwick An unemployed Court Jester is nobody's fool. pgp2dZKnM4oDa.pgp Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Re: [gentoo-user] how to update python choice
Hi, no problems doing it except because of the large number of packages look forward to hours of compiling (24hrs on my surface pro4). Got a few other systems to do which is going to take awhile.

[gentoo-user] how to update python choice
I am still using python 3.4, i.e. sh-4.4# eselect python show python3.4 sh-4.4# sh-4.4# eselect python list Available Python interpreters, in order of preference: [1] python3.4 [2] python3.6 (fallback) [3] python3.5 (fallback) [4] python2.7 (fallback) sh-4.4# I realize I should have updated previously. Is a python update as simple as emerge --update --changed-use --with-bdeps=n @world eselect python set python3.6 emerge --update --changed-use --with-bdeps=n @world I have no custom python scripts on either of my systems. thanks in advance, allan
