Installing a new system fails to compile net-libs/grpc-1.65.1 as python-3.13 has been set to the new default python version. Neither python-3.12 nor python-3.11 will be installed by dependency. The build will fail with following error message: >>> Failed to emerge net-libs/grpc-1.65.1, Log file: >>> '/var/tmp/portage/net-libs/grpc-1.65.1/temp/build.log' >>> Jobs: 23 of 504 complete, 1 failed Load avg: 1.73, 1.33, 0.62 * Package: net-libs/grpc-1.65.1:0/42.165 * Repository: gentoo * Maintainer: perfinion@gentoo.org xen0n@gentoo.org * USE: abi_x86_64 amd64 elibc_glibc kernel_linux systemd * FEATURES: network-sandbox preserve-libs sandbox userpriv usersandbox * Checking whether python3_12 is suitable ... * dev-lang/python:3.12 ...

Install Gentoo from stage3-amd64 2. emerge net-libs/grpc-1.65.1 or by package which depends on it 3. Failure will occure Actual Results: Build fails. Expected Results: Build should succeed, maybe by requesting python-3.12 as a slot dependency or by upgrading to python-3.13. Successful workaround: Emerge python-3.12 manually in front of net-libs/grpc-1.65.1 by: emerge -1 python:3.12
I didn't came across this on already working machines, as python-3.12 has not been removed yet, even after recent upgrades due to package dependencies.
