After emerge I see this message: * Please either fix the upstream build system to byte-compile Python modules * correctly, or call python_optimize after installing them. For more * information, see: * https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Python/Byte_compiling
Please attach the entire build log to this bug report.
OK, that happens with every currently available ebuild.
Does this still happen? I find that version 2.5.3 is fine wrt this bug on amd64.
This seems to be fixed in the currently available versions.
