To avoid keeping multiple python versions installed, I suggest to change the PYTHON_COMPAT to PYTHON_COMPAT=( python3_{7..10} pypy3 ) There seem to be no noticeable issue from what I've seen from now. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Remove all python versions except version 3.10, masking previous versions 2. Try to merge dev-python/backports-zoneinfo Actual Results: emerge refuses to merge the package as python version 3.10 is not listed in PYTHON_COMPAT Expected Results: emerge to use python 3.10 to merge this package
This is a backport of a standard library, what purpose does it serve when there is the standard library available?
Revdeps have this particular code in common: > $(python_gen_cond_dep ' > dev-python/backports-zoneinfo[${PYTHON_USEDEP}] > ' 3.8) It does not seem there is any need for this package in >=3.9 for any existing revdep in ::gentoo.
