Re: [gentoo-alt] Gentoo Prefix bootstrap fails on Stage 3 due to circular dependencies (dev-lang/python-3.7.7-r2 pulls virtual/libcrypt-1-r1:0/1::gentoo)

[Sam Pfeiffer]

Hey Jeff,

There is an open bug about it:

https://bugs.gentoo.org/728986

There is a workaround posted there (I haven't tried it).

Alternatively you could use an already bootstrapped prefix from
https://github.com/awesomebytes/gentoo_prefix_ci#try-gentoo-prefix from a
couple of weeks ago.

Good luck!
