After installing app-eselect/eselect-python-20151117-r1 I can no longer run python-updater. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. as root, run: python-updater Actual Results: dagwood ~ # python-updater * '/usr/bin/python2' is not valid symlink # Expected Results: kong bin # python-updater * Starting Python Updater... * Main active version of Python: 2.7 [...] Re-emerging python-updater, eseelct-python, and python:2.7 does not help. This allows me to run python-updater: cd /usr/bin rm python2 python3 ln -s python2.7 python2 ln -s python3.4 python3
This needs to be fixed in python-updater. I'll take a look.

Same problem here.
app-admin/python-updater-0.13 give same error and as said above This allows me to run python-updater: cd /usr/bin rm python2 python3 ln -s python2.7 python2 ln -s python3.4 python3 makes python-updater work
FYI: replacing those executables with symlinks will silently and irrevocably break eselect-python.
My sugestion to anyone hitting this bug: chill out and wait for us to fix python-updater. I plan to do so today.
This should be fixed in python-updater-0.14.
(In reply to Michał Górny from comment #5) > FYI: replacing those executables with symlinks will silently and irrevocably > break eselect-python. Thanks for this warning.
Already fixed in python-updater-0.14
