I followed this |

| 63 |
http://blogs.pwmn.net/korkakak/2008/06/04/gentoo-i-unmerged-python-now-what |
| 64 |
|
| 65 |
which worked - in the end. couple of caveats tho for anyone 'that follows' get python from their site as the ftp link in this article is out of date. |
| 66 |
|
| 67 |
http://www.python.org/download/releases/ |
| 68 |
|
| 69 |
also I initially tried 3.01 and that didn't work so i installed 2.6.2 which worked 'out of the box' i then tested with 'emerge' and am now running 'emerge -va python' |
