Not all packages which have PYTHON_COMPAT strings set to 3 cover all python3 versions available, i.e. 3.7, 3.8. Found so far: * media-libs/pyliblo - why is this not dev-python/pyliblo ? * dev-python/pyalsa * media-gfx/img2pdf * net-misc/dropbox-cli Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Remove Python 3.6 from list of python targets 2. rebuild world Actual Results: Cannot merge due to missing deps. Expected Results: Build
Yes. It is up to the maintainer to test and add these python versions to the compat string.
These are all current packages which don't have 3.7+ support yet in unstable: https://qa-reports.gentoo.org/output/gpyutils/36-to-37.txt And here is the list where unstable has support but stabilization is needed for 3.7+: https://qa-reports.gentoo.org/output/gpyutils/36-to-37-stablereq.txt I really don't think we need this bug report, this is being worked on. If you have tested a particular package on 3.7/3.8 and it works, you can open a bug for that specific package.
Indeed we don't need this bug report.
