No it wasn't. [1] You just didn't know that ( which is completely
understandable ). Just as you must not have understood the implications of
emerge -C python:2.6. I don't want to be mean but would you like to enlighten
us as to how you managed to unemerge python:2.6 while using python3 when
portage didn't work with python3.

I did not unmerge <python-3, I was in hard multitasking mode so I could not reconstruct how it broken so badly, also tinderbox packages work better if the CFLAGS used are the same, which is not always true.

Yes really.
