How to get DisplayCAL in Gentoo/Sabayon

[Morgan Hardwood]

Hey

As DisplayCAL uses Python2 which is obsolete and being dropped from Linux package repositories, DisplayCAL itself is also being dropped.

How does one get DisplayCAL in Gentoo or Sabayon?

I have the same question

Is there no hope?

Long time I just kept the last installation but finally it blocked me from system update, hence I was forced to de-install displaycal, which is a nightmare for a photographer.

Just trying to install it under python_3 gave me:

# python setup.py install
File "setup.py", line 258
print "Bumping version number %s ->" % \
^
SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print'. Did you mean print("Bumping version number %s ->" % \)?

Any help is very much appreciated
