странный глюк easy_install

Коллеги, всем привет!
Имею свежеустановленную дженту, прошедшую emerge world -uDpv. Цель системы: веб-сервак, мониторинг, ну и немного скрипты и тестирование разработок.

Джента по умолчанию поставила два питона

eselect python list
Available python interpreters:
  [1]   python2.6 *
  [2]   python3.1

Соответственно используем по дефолту 2,6.
далее пытаемся сделать, скажем # easy_install django
и получаем:

# easy_install django
