Created attachment 310041 [details] Build output Summary says it all, fails to build with python3, not with python2. I unmasked app-emulation/xen-tools-4.1.2-r2 and build went fine. The ebuild should force python2 or app-emulation/xen-tools-4.1.2-r2 should be marked as stable.

Created attachment 318500 [details, diff] patch to force python2 in 4.1.1-r6
i went ahead and made a patch to unblock myself. please apply, great xen maintainer...
xen (4.1.1-r2, 4.1.2) itself needs some work to force python2 in systems that have both. i can cut another bug, or should we rework this bug to focus on the forced python2 aspect needed along the xen stack.
confirm this bug. i have installed xen enabled systems from stage3 in amd64 ( clean install), result - fail. Xen-tools NOT build with python3. Please add call python_set_active_version 2 in pkg_setup()
confirm this bug. i have installed xen enabled systems from hardened-stage3 in amd64 ( clean install), result - fail. Xen-tools NOT build with python3.
I get the same error attached in the initial description. If Python 3 is the active version, xen-tools-4.1.1-r6 will not install. If Python 2 is set as the active version, or razamatan's patch is used, xen-tools-4.1.1-r6 installs with no trouble. Can razamatan's patch be merged, please?
app-emulation/xen-tools-4.1.2-r2 should be marked as stable. 406567 was a miserable failure 23 Jan 2013; Ian Delaney <idella4@gentoo.org> xen-tools-4.1.1-r6.ebuild: patch from razamatan applied, fixes Bug #413493
