Bug 547002 – dev-python/pypy-2.5.1 fails to emerge when system implementation is set to Python3 instead of Python2

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

emerge --info '=dev-python/pypy-2.5.1::gentoo

dev-python/pypy-2.5.1:0/2.5 fails if the system implementation of Python is set to Python3, I assume because of the below syntax error using a Python2-style print statement. 

Setting the implementation to Python2 with eselect and trying again, the ebuild successfully installed.

I don't think this should be happening anymore with our python-any-r1 logic but feel free to reopen if you hit it again.
