Description Timothy Messier 2012-06-14 11:05:03 UTC

The default python implementation is set to python 3 for stage3-amd64-20120531. Python 2 is not even installed.

Reproducible: Always

I suggest setting the following variables in the default profile as possible solution:

USE="python2 -python3" 
USE_PYTHON="2.7"
PYTHON_TARGETS="python2_7"
