:3 means depend on the lang/python3 port (a meta port, providing the
only the python3 symlink) which is unlikely what is intended.

If a python package *only* supports Python 3.x, use USES=python:x.y+
instead, ideally matching what upstream says are the supported versions
as closely as the USES=python syntax allows.

In this case pager supports *both* 2.x and 3.x [1], so a py-pager port
should be created with USES=python.

[1] setup.py: 'Programming Language :: Python :: 2',
              'Programming Language :: Python :: 3',
