Description Chris Mayo 2011-02-28 20:32:19 UTC 
If Python3 is the default interpreter postler fails to emerge:

/var/tmp/portage/mail-client/postler-0.1.0/work/postler-0.1.0/wscript: error: Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/var/tmp/portage/mail-client/postler-0.1.0/work/postler-0.1.0/.waf3-1.5.16-e6d03192b5ddfa5ef2c8d65308e48e42/wafadmin/Utils.py", line 197, in load_module
    exec(compile(code,file_path,'exec'),module.__dict__)
  File "/var/tmp/portage/mail-client/postler-0.1.0/work/postler-0.1.0/wscript", line 19
    print 'Incompatible Waf, use 1.5'
                                    ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Adding inherit python and to pkg_setup():
python_set_active_version 2
fixed this for me
