strace /usr/bin/python-exec2c /opt/pycharm-community/helpers/pydev/pydevconsole.py

When trying to use the interactive python console in dev-util/pycharm-community-2017.2.3, the subprocess dies with exit code 127.
I think it's related to dev-lang/python-exec (I'm using 2.4.4), setting the path to the python interpreter to /usr/bin/python3.4m in pycharm fixes the problem.

This can be reproduced from the OS shell using "strace /usr/bin/python-exec2c /opt/pycharm-community/helpers/pydev/pydevconsole.py", trace is attached.

Looks like choosing any interpreter (i.e. /usr/bin/python3.6) instead of python-exec2c works.

I think there were two solutions:

a) select an interpreter based on PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET and write in in default config

b) create files needed for ython-exec2c (note these "file not found" in the trace output)

should not be a problem now.
