I'm not sure the missing file in your error message is related to python - VTE 
is a GTK+3 widget used by some Gnome based terminal emulators and in 
particular Tilix.  Could this be related to your LiveUSB, instead of your 
chrooted fs?  I don't have this file here, probably because I don't use Gnome 
term to be able to compare notes.

A new python version following a portage update, which is not already part of 
your stage3, would show up when you try to update world once you have 
chroot'ed successfully.

In any case, you can check the stage3 /usr/bin/python* files and what version 
/etc/python-exec/python-exec.conf sets as its global python setting.
