Hello!

Sorry for asking such a stupid question. I tried to figure out the answer 
myself by reading /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.python.mk, but it's really over my head.

If I'm going to install a port that defines USE_PYTHON=yes in it's 
Makefile and I currently have python-2.4.3,1 installed, will the port 
accept my existing Python version or attempt to pull in Python 2.5?

Thanks in advance.
