Have you set eselect python to use python-3 instead of python-2?  If so,
try setting it back to python-2.

No, python 2.6 ist set according to the output of 

    eselect python list

python 3.1 is installed but not selected.

What else can produce this compilation error?

Have you run python-updater?

When new packages have Python components, they will build both 2.6 and
3.1 modules if possible.  This means that their dependencies also need
to have both 2.6 and 3.1 modules.  You achieve this by running
python-updater; this can take several hours.

Hi Dave,

wait...hopefully I understand this correctly, before I start to screw
up my newly installed system...

State 1 right after installing Gentoo: Pyton2.6 selected, installed
and up.
State 2 some days later while upateing python3.1 was offered but
should *not* eselect python 3.1 since some older package are still
not updated to work correctly with 3.1
State 3 setuptools seems to try to compile against 3.1 and failed.

Now I should run python-updater to ... (scratching my head)? 
To update to python 3.1..but setuptools failed while compiling 
against python 3.1

It seems I myself feel a little screwed up,,, ;)

?

Best regards,
mcc

You need to run python-updater so that there are python modules for all
packages that are compatible with both releases of Python.  This is
because any such package will attempt to build modules for both Python
interpreters, even though you are currently using only 2.6.

>To update to python 3.1..but setuptools failed while compiling 
>against python 3.1

Just run python-updater first, as this will take care of any
build-time dependencies of setuptools. Then try to emerge your general
updates, which should build setuptools correctly.

Did you miss the significance of this part?

"This means that their dependencies also need to have both 2.6 and 3.1 
modules.  You achieve this by running python-updater; this can take several 
hours."

Or if he doesn't really need python 3, he can just mask the thing until 
he does need it.  Of course, he may have to run python-updater again or 
rebuild the same packages again to get them to not use python 3.

Yep, making this stable hasn't confused anyone yet.  o_O

And yes: I need python 3.1 (building the svn version of blender needs
it, which gets installed under /uss/local/...)

You can set your main active version of python as 2.6, and still have
3.1 installed to build and run Blender.
http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/Python/developersguide.xml

I have not seen the ebuild you are using for your svn version of
blender so not sure if it will work as is.
Python is not ready as yet to run as your main active version yet and
looks like you found one of the reasons.

I am not using an ebuild for the svn-version of Blender.
It is compiled "outside" Gentoo, installed under /usr/local 
and the only thing, which may have "system-impact" (...) is
one big executable: Blender itsself. The whole thing cant
have any influence on the rest of the system.

And as said, eselect reports:

eselect python list
Available Python interpreters:
  [1]   python2.6 *
  [2]   python3.1

Just for fun, try re-emerging app-admin/eselect-python and use it to
select python3 and then go back to python2 again.

This is just guesswork.  I'm not sure if the installer for setuptools is
actually using the right version of refactor.py.  Maybe it should be using
the python2 version of refactor?  Dunno.  Can't hurt to try it.

Hi,

thanks for your posting! :)

I did what you suggested, but it did not change the situation in
any way.
