Code:

emerge -1 dev-python/backports-tarfile

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies |

!!! Problem resolving dependencies for dev-python/backports-tarfile
... done!
Dependency resolution took 3.16 s (backtrack: 0/20).


!!! The ebuild selected to satisfy "dev-python/backports-tarfile" has unmet requirements.
- dev-python/backports-tarfile-1.1.1::gentoo USE="-test" ABI_X86="(64)" PYTHON_TARGETS="(-pypy3) -python3_10 -python3_11"

  The following REQUIRED_USE flag constraints are unsatisfied:
    any-of ( python_targets_pypy3 python_targets_python3_10 python_targets_python3_11 )



does this means this pkg is not py3.12 ready?
:oops:

This package is not necessary in 3.12 as it is built in. It will not be updated and will be depcleaned once 3.11 is removed from a system.

It will not be removed until the packages which depend on it for 3.11, remove their own 3.11 support.

So the real question you are asking is, when is Gentoo going to drop support for building various packages with 3.11? And the answer is, it will be a while because before that happens we also need to drop support for 3.10.

There is value in keeping a non-default version working for a while after the default gets upgraded. Especially for non-leaf packages.
