Created attachment 731287 [details] emerge --info For the development of an iwd client, I woud like to test it against older versions of Python. And even though netifaces-0.11.0.ebuild states PYTHON_COMPAT=( pypy3 python3_{7..10} ) it refused to build for python3.7: # PYTHON_TARGETS="python3_7" emerge netifaces Calculating dependencies - !!!
