Comment (by mojca@…):

 But that's "slightly suboptimal". If you have `root5 +python27` installed,
 your machine could spend 4 hours compiling `root6 +python27` (hopefully
 less), only to tell you that the variant conflicts with `root5` just
 before activation. Personally I'm not a big fan of this solution (even
 though I admit that it at least solves one weird problem). I would ask
 others for help.
