!!! Error: Couldn't source /usr/share/eselect/modules/python.eselect
Call stack:
    * do_action (core.bash:83)
    * main (eselect:191)
exiting

any ideas ?

Thanks for guide :)

I was just starting to look for this. Although is there a way to tell which version of Python I already have ? I installed Gentoo 4 days ago.

EDIT revised to quickly display the solution without having to search the entire topic

In the stable tree python 2.7 has been available for some time. However the upgrade from 2.6 needs to be performed in a certain manner.

Immediately after emerging python 2.7 a message is displayed by portage about running python-updater. This message does not list all steps required which are:
Code:
eselect python set python2.7
python-updater
emerge --depclean
revdep-rebuild
NOTE of course the last two lines may affect other packages as well!


So I tried that, but when I try python-update, packages seem to still have 2.6 dependencies, and won't build due to slot conflicts. For example:


Code:

(dev-python/sphinx-1.2::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) pulled in by
    dev-python/sphinx[python_targets_python2_6(-)?,python_targets_python2_7(-)?,python_targets_python3_2(-)?,python_targets_python3_3(-)?,-python_single_target_python2_6(-),-python_single_target_python2_7(-),-python_single_target_python3_2(-),-python_single_target_python3_3(-)] required by (dev-python/pexpect-3.0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)
    dev-python/sphinx[python_targets_python2_6(-)?,python_targets_python2_7(-)?,python_targets_python3_2(-)?,python_targets_python3_3(-)?,-python_single_target_python2_6(-),-python_single_target_python2_7(-),-python_single_target_python3_2(-),-python_single_target_python3_3(-)] required by (dev-python/matplotlib-1.3.1::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)



I tried installing 2.6 before running python-updater, but that didn't help.
