Description Yaroslav Isakov 2018-06-05 21:56:45 UTC

Hello,
It appears that qemu support building with python3 starting from version 2.12 - https://github.com/qemu/qemu/commit/c21965a0c8b979c306e927f158257e5b0fa3a1f9

I personally changed python2_7 to python3_6 in in-tree ebuild, and can successfully compile working qemu build.
