Hi.
I want to use python3.7 by default but it's still in testing stage so I
| Code: | #package.accept_keywords
dev-lang/python ~amd64 |
so that
would install Python 3.7. After the successful emerging, I ran
| Code: | | eselect python list |
but it only shows
| Code: | Available Python interpreters, in order of preference:
[1] python3.6
[2] python3.5
[3] python2.7 (fallback) |
I can run
| Code: | $ python3.7
Python 3.7.0 (default, Jul 12 2018, 11:40:06)
[GCC 7.3.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> |
with no problem. But the command "python" still invokes python3.6 by default.
Question: What is going wrong? How can I use python3.7 by default? |

Try to add python3.7 in /etc/python-exec/python-exec.conf.
I'm not sure if the work set action.
eselect python check python version or with command python-exec2c -l (available) or reading /etc/python-exec/python-exec.conf file (preferred)

You might need to re-emerge eselect-python.
Python3.7 support hasn't been added to any ebuilds yet, so maybe they are just testing that it builds and it's not supposed to be used yet? (Maybe it's not supported yet in Gentoo packages, but works locally) |

Even though you add 'python3.7' with | Code: | | eselect python edit |
it shows up as '(uninstalled)' if you check it with | Code: | | eselect python list |
