Description Jason A. Donenfeld gentoo-dev 2020-10-01 12:27:35 UTC
With the elimination of python2 from the tree, python-exec doesn't need to provide the python2 symlink anymore. And with one provider of py2, this could just be folded into that package.

Reproducible: Always

    dev-lang/python-exec: Remove python2 symlink
    
    Stop installing python2* symlinks.  We have only one Python 2
    interpreter left, so let's move it there.  As a bonus, people without
    Python 2.7 installed will not have it at all.

Feel free to ping me in a week or to stabilize it (or just file stablereq for both python-exec and python:2.7).
