9 | /usr/share/man/man1/python.1.gz is a dead symlink.
10 Looking to the changelog, I find
11 | 10 May 2007; Bryan <C3><98>stergaard <kloeri@g.o>
12 | +python-2.3.6-r2.ebuild, +python-2.4.4-r3.ebuild,
13 | +python-2.5.1-r1.ebuild: Change threads USE flag to nothreads, fix
14 | non-linux linker issue and fix man-page symlink.
15 Is this a bug with the ebuild, my friends? Or is it my system which is
16 the source of the problem? Looks like i'm finally the first to run
17 into something ; )
