Ok, here is the patch [1]. Unfortunately, we can't just include USE_XZ
into bsd.python.mk because this will affect *all* the ports, that define
USE_PYTHON in their Makefile's. I can't think a way how to (nicely)
apply USE_XZ to limited set of ports inside of bsd.python.mk. Using
tar.xz instead of .tgz in ${PYTHON_DISTFILE} will not work on systems,
that lacks xz in a base system and I dislike the duplication of USE_XZ
internals in bsd.python.mk for them.
So this patch just replaces .tgz with ${EXTRACT_SUFX} and USE_XZ is used
in individual python ports. I did some test builds of python and it's
slaves (py-sqlite3, py-bdsdb, py-gdbm, py-tkinter) and everything seems
fine. I also diffed all the four pairs tgz/tar.xz of each python version
- and, as it was expected, their content is equal.
Any objections, suggestions etc?
