bluey /home/agl # eselect python list
Available Python interpreters, in order of preference:
   [1]   python3.9
   [2]   python3.8 (fallback)
   [3]   python3.7 (fallback)
   [4]   python2.7 (fallback)

	But it has all become a moot point. In the process of trying to track 
this down, I saw stuff in the bugs list where people were talking about 
7.* release. I've decided to not waste my time on the 6 series and just 
wait until 7 arrives in Portage then go from there.

	Thanks for the suggestion anyway,
