This is a backport of a standard library, what purpose does it serve when there is the standard library available? Revdeps have this particular code in common:
> $(python_gen_cond_dep '
> dev-python/backports-zoneinfo[${PYTHON_USEDEP}]
> ' 3.8)
It does not seem there is any need for this package in >=3.9 for any existing revdep in ::gentoo.

To avoid keeping multiple python versions installed, I suggest to change the PYTHON_COMPAT to PYTHON_COMPAT=( python3_{7..10} pypy3 ) There seem to be no noticeable issue from what I've seen from now. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Remove all python versions except version 3.10, masking previous versions 2. Try to merge dev-python/backports-zoneinfo Actual Results: emerge refuses to merge the package as python version 3.10 is not listed in PYTHON_COMPAT Expected Results: emerge to use python 3.10 to merge this package
