Description Harald van Dijk (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-05-07 19:04:35 UTC 
DEPEND="dev-python/setuptools
    net-zope/zope-fixers"

zope-interface doesn't need python 3, but zope-fixers does. If zope-fixers can be made to install without it, then great, otherwise, could you use something like

DEPEND="dev-python/setuptools
    || ( net-zope/zope-fixers !dev-lang/python:3.1 )"

?
Comment 1 Harald van Dijk (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-08-23 17:19:19 UTC 
Fixed.
Comment 2 Harald van Dijk (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-08-25 21:35:43 UTC 
Reverted and re-opening, as this caused problems (#334443)
Comment 3 Jan Pobrislo 2011-02-02 11:28:31 UTC 
zope-fixers are fixes for python3, so they need to be installed if and only if package is installed for python3.

only solution that comes to my mind is to add python3 to USE and depend only if it's set.

PYTHON_DEPEND supports USE conditionals, so this approach should work.

This bug has been worked around some time ago.
