ah - /usr/ports/UPDATING -- thank you
Don't know that I have gone past /usr/src/UPDATING, silly me :(
For ports users wanting to keep version 3.6 as default,
add DEFAULT_VERSIONS+= python=3.6 python3=3.6 to make.conf
and (maybe)

AFFECTS: users of Qt 5 in presence of binutils
:
...lib/libQt5Core.so:(.dynamic+0x27ac8): multiple definition of `__bss_start at Qt_5'
...lib/libQt5Core.so:(.dynamic+0x27ac8): first defined here
...lib/libQt5Core.so:(.dynamic+0x27ac8): multiple definition of `_edata at Qt_5'
...lib/libQt5Core.so:(.dynamic+0x27ac8): first defined here
...lib/libQt5Core.so:(.dynamic+0x2b2d0): multiple definition of `_end at Qt_5'
So python for sure - thanks again. With some of the sub-sub version stuff can
the port/package makers not cover this with the way the Makefile-s define
requirements? Qt is a pretty basic component. It just went 4-->5 I do not
remember having this issue during the "4" days.
Sad to say if I knew about /usr/ports/UPDATING I forgot. Call it a senior
moment. Thanks guys
Doug
