You've already had a reply about the slotted nature of python, but you also need to understand that USE flags are not dependency lists. USE flags cover optional features, if a package has an option python module, bindings or scripts, a USE flag may determine whether they are installed. But if a package needs python2, no amount of fudging with USE flags will change that fact. -- Neil Bothwick Programmer (n): A red-eyed, mumbling mammal capable of conversing with inanimate objects.
