Description Michele Alzetta 2017-11-01 08:50:52 UTC
Ebuild contains the following line:

PYTHON_COMPAT=( python3_{4,5} )

On my python 3_6 only system this is the only package requiring me to reinstall an older version of python. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
emerge -pv vulkan-loader
Actual Results:  
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

dev-lang/python-3.5.4
media-libs/vulkan-loader-1.0.61.1  

Expected Results:  
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

media-libs/vulkan-loader-1.0.61.1  

Changing the ebuild in my local overlay to:

PYTHON_COMPAT=( python3_{4,5,6} )

apparently just works. I see someone else has suggested this elsewhere:
