See bug 566504 comment 7 and bug 590170. Basically you need at least app-portage/gentoolkit-0.3.2-r1.
So I need an unstable package version to inspect details about a stable package?
(In reply to Michael Jones from comment #2) > So I need an unstable package version to inspect details about a > stable package? Yes, if you want to run equery u on *any* package using python3.4 you need a version of equery that survives nb - Norwegian Bokmål in /usr/portage/profiles/desc/l10n.desc. That version of the package has been stabling since 20160801 – that's 12 weeks now – so you might as well just keyword it yourself. Or just could use python2.7 until that version gets stabilized. Or you could make this bug depend on 590170 to remind the architecture people CC:d there that this is still affecting others.
