You're saying 'we should explore the option not to upgrade packages |
17 |
without user explicitly saying "please upgrade this package"'. |

It does depend on python versions based on $USE_PYTHON. And USE_PYTHON |
25 |
defaults to 2+3 if installed. If it pulls in Python 3, it will pull in |
26 |
all the time unless you set USE_PYTHON manually and remerge all |
27 |
the packages manually. |
