 |
|
contrary to amd64 on arm64 I cannot eselect python3.8
even if installed it cannot be seen or chosen by eselect and python-exec does not mention it
also note PYTHON_TARGETS is different when emerging python-exec on amd64 or arm64

sorry to reply to own query
appending
-python_targets_python3_8
-python_single_target_python3_8
to
/usr/portage/profiles/arch/arm64/use.mask
and re-emerging
dev-lang/python-exec
fixed issue |

You are not supposed to edit /usr/portage by hand. You can edit /etc/portage.
Refer to `man portage`. |

right  I confess the hack 
I had noticed /usr/portage had different content for amd64 and arm64 architectures with respect to python 3.8 exec.
(search for 'Allow python-exec to install all targets' in arch/amd64/package.use.stable.mask)
... but I could not figure easily out how to edit /etc/portage in order to have
emerge python-exec
pick up python target python3_8 for arm64 as it did for amd64.
e.g.: I tried adding
dev-lang/python-exec python_targets_python3_8
to
/etc/portage/package.use
Would you let me know which file to (create?) and how to edit?
Would you then mind posting output of a tentative
emerge -pv python-exec
on your box?
Have a nice day. |

| Based on a quick read of man portage, I think you want to use /etc/portage/profile/use.mask. I have not tested this though. |

this works ! (I happened to not have a /etc/portage/profile/use.mask file) |

| The absence of the entire /etc/portage/profile directory is normal. It exists only if you create it, and you would only create it if you wanted to override certain aspects of the profile. |
