https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D251019 Bug ID: 251019 Summary: New port: lang/tauthon: Backwards-compatible fork of Python 2.7 interpreter with Python 3.x features Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: olivier.freebsd@free.fr Created attachment 219523 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3D219523&action= =3Dedit Patch file for new port Small description (see pkg-desc in diff): """ Tauthon is a backward-compatible fork of Python's 2.7.18 interpreter with n= ew syntax, builtins, and libraries backported from Python 3.x. Python code and C-extensions targeting Python 2.7 or below are expected to = run unmodified on Tauthon and produce the same output. But with Tauthon, that c= ode can now use some of the new features from Python 3.x. """ Tauthon can be used with old code bases that will take time to migrate (or won't be migrated at all). My use case is the build infrastructure for New Moon, which I'll submit next as a new port. This port is modeled after lang/python27, with irrelevant bits (AFAIK) remo= ved, and specific ones added. As lang/python*, core modules with big dependencies are omitted, and should be re-enabled in other ports (I did not do it since= I don't have any immediate use for them). No changes were made to Uses/python.mk, so currently no existing py-* port = can use this version automatically. bapt@ is against such a change, but it migh= t be useful for folks that want to install some packages under Tauthon (I curren= tly don't have any use for this), although I guess that 'pip' could be used instead. I intend to maintain it, but I'd be happy to defer to python@ (and particip= ate there from time to time) if you prefer. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
