I had 'python' in the 'USE=" in 'make.conf' for whatever reason, |
11 |
so i deleted it & that removed some of the outstanding problem pkgs. |
12 |
|
13 |
I'm now left with 5 problem pkgs : |
14 |
|
15 |
llvm-7.1.0 fetchmail-6.3.26-r4 qtwebkit-5.212.0_pre20180120 |
16 |
spidermonkey-60.5.2_p0-r2 firefox-60.8.0 |
17 |
|
18 |
the former 3 all have in their ebuilds |
19 |
|
20 |
PYTHON_COMPAT=( python2_7 ) |
21 |
|
22 |
the latter 2 are said to require |
23 |
|
24 |
python 2.7 : 2.7 [ncurses sqlite ssl threads] |
25 |
|
26 |

27 |
they aren't set in 'make.conf' or elsewhere AFAIK. |
28 |
|
29 |
Can anyone explain (1) how to get around the 1st 3 ebuilds |
30 |
or (2) what the problem is with the 2nd 2 examples ? |
