Description Derek Dolney 2003-12-18 07:41:27 UTC

This ebuild uses the python2.2 executable, so it doesn't work if you only have python 2.3. It should either be re-written like 2.0.49-r18 to not use python2.2, or given the <python-2.3 dependency.

-r15 is x86, python-2.3 is ~x86, so that shouldn't normally be a problem.
If you emerge python with ~x86 the changed dependency won't save you.

Not a bug. Python and portage match in versions and depend properly.
Portage cannot do anything about user manipulations
