Python appears to be gone from the base system? Or maybe I'm looking at
the wrong file? Anyway, 'emerge -pv @system | grep python' would seem to
agree here.
Now I don't have a PhD in Gentoo Package Manglement (barely passed the
kindergarten level so far?), but that commit looks rather unsettling for
other parts as well. Are the devs switching over to paludis in droves?
Or why is sys-apps/portage commented out as well? Why is it replaced by
the hard-coded ("old-style"?) virtual/portage?
