No. When it is *safe* to do so there will be all manner of news, blog and list posts from the devs announcing that the time has come. This hasn't happened. I don't follow why you asked the question given the data to hand though. Portage told you that revdep-rebuild listed python-2.7 as a candidate for deletion, and portage refused to do it, quite correctly. -- Alan McKinnnon alan.mckin...@gmail.com
