Public bug reported: I'm attempting to install touchegg and geis is one of the requirements. Unfortunately the process fails during config with the message:
No package 'python3' found This happens both through emerge (from the Gentoo Portage overlay named 'trash') and when downloading the source (version 2.2.16) and running ./configure -n Python 3.3 is installed and, according to config.log, is detected: configure:4489: checking for a Python interpreter with version >= 3.2 configure:4506: python -c import sys # split strings by '.' and convert to numeric.
