Trying to installed dev-libs/libxml2 under Python3.8, as well, there is a problem with the install directories. While dev-lang/python3.8 installs into /usr/lib/python3.8 and most packages install into /usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages, libxml2 installs into /usr/lib64/python3.8/site-packages Therefore it isn't found by other packages. How can I change this? Many thanks for a hint, Helmut
Which profile do you use? 17.0 or 17.1? Please recompile and *attach* the logfiles and paste the emerge info as described on https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Attach_the_logs_to_the_bug_ticket We need to have all information at hand before ticket assignment, so that the maintainer can look after it in one session with minimal number of callbacks. Please reopen this ticket (Status:unconfirmed) afterwards.

I'm using 17.1 but the old configure.ac was broken. Here is the additional patch I've encorporated into ABIFLAG.patch -# does not work as it produce a /usr/lib/python path instead of/usr/lib64/python +# DOES work as it produce a /usr/lib/python path instead of/usr/lib64/python # -# PYTHON_SITE_PACKAGES=`$PYTHON -c "from distutils import sysconfig; print(sysconfig.get_python_lib())"` + PYTHON_SITE_PACKAGES=`$PYTHON -c "from distutils import sysconfig; print(sysconfig.get_python_lib())"` With this modified patch it installs fine.
