When installing pygtksourceview from a binpkg, I get: ERROR: dev-python/pygtksourceview-2.10.1 failed (setup phase): * dev-lang/python:2.7 is not installed In the ebuild I see: PYTHON_DEPEND="2:2.6" So I guess it's the eclass that somehow checks which version the pkg has been built against (which in my case is 2.7) and then bails out. However, this obviously breaks installation since python:2.7 is not in RDEPEND. So I'd have to manually upgrade to python:2.7 beforehand, and then proceed with the other updates. This probably applies to other packages, too. Is there some way of fixing this? I can add a quirk for this in my deployment scripts, but of course fixing these things in portage is the better way to go... Reproducible: Always
