The current ebuilds of dev-python/sip and dev-python/PyQt4 exclude Python 3.3 without need. I have copied these ebuilds to my local overlay, having added 3_3 : PYTHON_COMPAT=( python{2_5,2_6,2_7,3_1,3_2,3_3} ) Now emerging dev-python/sip and dev-python/PyQt4 and finally dev-util/eric5 proceed just fine for Python 3.3 and invoking eric5 and setting it to use Python 3.3 just works fine. So, please let Python 3.3 go. Helmut.
It has: PYTHON_COMPAT=( python{2_5,2_6,2_7,3_1,3_2,3_3} ) which appears to work out as: DEPEND=" python_targets_python2_5? ( dev-lang/python:2.5 ) python_targets_python2_6?
