I noticed others reporting Python update problems & didn't follow it,
but in my regular Sat update today encountered a big mess.
'setuptools-scm' offered 13 screens of conflicts,
which were reduced to 10 by ' --backtrack=60 '.
I tried a 'quickpkg' + 'emerge -k', but was refused as the ebuild was missing.
Finally, I did a few 'emerge -C' brute-forces on some listed pkgs,
which allowed a straightforward 'emerge' of 18 Python pkgs.
The underlying problem seemed to be a jump to Python 3.13 .
That solution is risky, but it has always worked before + today.
I don't understand why Python can't do it automatically,
but am tired of complaining & remain a strong fan of Gentoo.
PS I've never done 'emerge World' without '-pv' since 2003 :
I always pick/choose which pkgs to update a few at a time.
