Setting up to do my monthly update <G>.  There was an update to
portage, so I ran it. The final stage (install) complained about a
missing (python?) module named "netlink".  Is this a serious problem?
=====================================================================

 * Using python3.6 in global scope
 * Setting make.globals default DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" for backward 
compatibility
 * Setting repos.conf default location = /usr/portage for backward compatibility
