I have eselect python2.4 but when running python-updater I get:-

 File "/usr/bin/portageq", line 98
    except portage.exception.InvalidAtom as e:
                                          ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
  File "/usr/bin/portageq", line 98
    except portage.exception.InvalidAtom as e:
                                          ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
 * Python 2 and Python 3 not installed

Have also tried emerge imaging with python2.4 set and get :- 

File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 44 except PermissionDenied as e:
                             ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
on2.4

Think the python-updater looks forward but not backward (if you see
what I mean) 

I have also tried changing all the references in bin scripts from
python2.4 to python2.7 but this fails miserably. The only thing I can
think of at the moment is to download manual package and install but
I'm really not sure where this is going to stick all the modules?

Thanks
