Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Archives-Salt: X-Archives-Hash: cb61302fc266e951bda0f7e90a1d11a1 I have a quick question. I sync'd a bit ago and noticed something a bit odd. Here it is: [ebuild U *] sys-apps/portage-2.2.0_alpha34 [2.2.0_alpha33] USE="(ipc) -build -doc -epydoc -python2 -python3 (-selinux)" LINGUAS="-pl" 794 kB I know portage needs python but check out the USE flags. Both python2 and python3 are disabled. Shouldn't one of those be enabled? Even better, shouldn't portage complain a bit about this before emerging? Thing is, I'm tempted to enable them both. 2.7 is currently being used but won't 3.1 be used eventually? Should I enable both or just emerge as is? That is the unstable version so if this is a problem, I want to file a bug before someone else runs into this and ends up with a borked system. Thanks. Dale :-) :-)
