firefox-esr needs both python2 and python3 as a build time dependency, but as many packages try to get rid of python2 at the moment I probed for the minimum of python:2.7 it actually needs. turns out this setup for python:2.7 [ebuild R ~] dev-lang/python-2.7.16:2.7::gentoo USE="readline sqlite (threads) (wide-unicode) xml (-berkdb) -bluetooth -build -doc -examples -gdbm -hardened -ipv6 -libressl -ncurses -ssl -tk -wininst" 0 KiB is not sufficent, and the configure of firefox fails with: 0:01.10 Complete output from command /var/tmp/portage/www...ualenv/bin/python2.7 - setuptools pip wheel: 0:01.10 Traceback (most recent call last): 0:01.10 File "<stdin>", line 7, in <module> 0:01.10 File "/var/tmp/portage/www-client/firefox-60.5.2/work/firefox-60.5.2/third_party/python/virtualenv/virtualenv_support/pip-8.1.2-py2.py3-none-any.whl/pip/__init__.py", line 16, in <module> 0:01.10 File "/var/tmp/portage/www-client/firefox-60.5.2/work/firefox-60.5.2/third_party/python/virtualenv/virtualenv_support/pip-8.1.2-py2.py3-none-any.whl/pip/vcs/subversion.py", line 9, in <module> 0:01.10 File "/var/tmp/portage/www-client/firefox-60.5.2/work/firefox-60.5.2/third_party/python/virtualenv/virtualenv_support/pip-8.1.2-py2.py3-none-any.whl/pip/index.py", line 30, in <module> 0:01.10 File "/var/tmp/portage/www-client/firefox-60.5.2/work/firefox-60.5.2/third_party/python/virtualenv/virtualenv_support/pip-8.1.2-py2.py3-none-any.whl/pip/wheel.py", line 39, in <module> 0:01.10 File "/var/tmp/portage/www-client/firefox-60.5.2/work/firefox-60.5.2/third_party/python/virtualenv/virtualenv_support/pip-8.1.2-py2.py3-none-any.whl/pip/_vendor/distlib/scripts.py", line 14, in <module> 0:01.10 File "/var/tmp/portage/www-client/firefox-60.5.2/work/firefox-60.5.2/third_party/python/virtualenv/virtualenv_support/pip-8.1.2-py2.py3-none-any.whl/pip/_vendor/distlib/compat.py", line 31, in <module> 0:01.10 ImportError: cannot import name HTTPSHandler 0:01.10 ---------------------------------------- so please add ssl to the python deps for firefox, thanks.
It's very likely that >=firefox-65.0.2 needs the ssl useflag, but for python:3.x

However, Python 2 dependency, which is still required, was lost. This commit will bring back Python 2 dependency. Note that we use python-any-r1_pkg_setup in moz_pkgsetup to initialize Python 3 via PYTHON_COMPAT but we will switch back to Python 2 manually using python_export later.
