--- Comment #13 from David Naylor <dbn@FreeBSD.org> ---
Hopefully I understand this PR correctly (I have haven't, please comment wi=
th
an example and I'll reopen).=20=20

Changing the priority order from:
  PYTHON_VERSION > ${LOCALBASE}/bin/python > DEFAULT_VERSIONS
to
  PYTHON_VERSION > DEFAULT_VERSIONS > ${LOCALBASE}/bin/python
will not work if:
 a) the user installs the metaport lang/python2 or lang/python3, then
 b) changes DEFAULT_VERSIONS, and
 c) the port depends on a python metaport.
For example, lang/python3 is installed referencing python3.4 but the user (=
or
the framework) changes DEFAULT_VERSIONS to python3.5.=20=20

In this situation any port depending on a metaport (i.e. USES=3Dpython:2 or
USES=3Dpython:3) will think it is depending on a version it is not (i.e. py=
thon3
is python3.4 but the port will think it is python3.5).
