app-office/lyx-2.3.* supposedly would mostly work with Python 3. https://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/9006 Some recently fixed problem: https://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/11642 https://www.lyx.org/trac/changeset/b9cc642856d79edb07cbd4067bbc10e5be9b2a36/lyxgit (master branch) https://www.lyx.org/trac/changeset/d30da478d4f8ca861ee36ff77f6cc10c6f7bfd2b/lyxgit (2.3.x branch)
Created attachment 599322 [details, diff] lyx-2.3.3.ebuild patch (see caveats in description) We can easily support Python 3.5, 3.6, 3.7 and 3.8 starting with version 2.3.4, which is further backed by the README[0] and one remark[1] by one of the developers. The bug 11642 for version 2.3.3 only applied to macOS from what I could tell, but the important matter was b9cc642, which was applied _after_ the release of 2.3.3 and does not justify a general move to python3 for 2.3.3. The bug fixed in b9cc642 is only triggered when there's no ~/.lyx directory present, so given I have it I added python3_{5,6,7,8} (as specified by upstream in the README), removed the patch applied to the ebuild in files/ and the PATCHES-variable and it worked just fine (tested with 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8 both exclusively as target and single-target), including reconfiguration (diff attached). The only remaining question is when Lyx 2.3.4 will be released. The milestone[2] indicates that it won't be long.

Lyx 2.3.4 has been released on 2020-01-31, see [1]. The patch from comment 1 does the trick for me: Lyx starts and looks to do just fine. [1] https://www.lyx.org/News
Now, there is a bug fix release LyX 2.3.4.2: https://www.lyx.org/News#item1
