build log

I successfully built a binary package on my faster amd64 system, for games-util/xboxdrv-0.8.8_p20190118. However, when I attempt to install that binpkg on my slower amd64 system, it fails, apparently wanting to use python2.7 despite having been built with python3.7.

/var/tmp/portage/games-util/xboxdrv-0.8.8_p20190118/temp/environment on the target system after failure includes:

declare -x EPYTHON="python3.7"
declare -x PYTHON="/usr/bin/python3.7"
declare -a PYTHON_COMPAT=([0]="python3_7" [1]="python3_8" [2]="python3_9")

Is your /etc/python-exec/python-exec.conf fine in the "slower" amd64? What does 'eselect python list' say?

Skipping the comments in python-exec.conf:

python3.7
python3.6

# eselect python list
Available Python interpreters, in order of preference:
  [1]   python3.7
  [2]   python3.6
  [3]   python3.9 (fallback)
  [4]   python3.8 (fallback)
  [5]   python2.7 (fallback)
Comment 3 Joonas Niilola gentoo-dev 2021-03-17 14:40:17 UTC
So there's some python cleanup missing, I guess this is the problem? I don't remember the exact command, maybe eselect python cleanup. 

I think it's something in your system rather than the binpkg, but I'm not too familiar with binpkg's either. Maybe you can build it with --usepkg=n as it's a rather light package to build.
Comment 4 Luke-Jr 2021-03-17 16:56:50 UTC
Looks like the problem is dev-util/scons not being installed during pkg_setup.

I guess it either needs a depend added, or the eclass needs to be fixed to not require scons for binpkgs?
