https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=209551 --- Comment #10 from David Naylor <dbn@FreeBSD.org> --- (In reply to Kubilay Kocak from comment #5) If I understand this PR correctly (in the context of bug #209204) the issue is that given the Ports Framework's DEFAULT_VERSIONS the behavior for Python is NOT consistent with user expectations. Namely, users expect DEFAULT_VERSIONS=python=x to behave the same as PYTHON_VERSION=x, however this is not the case. (As an aside, it does not appear that PYTHON_VERSION is documented outside of Mk/Uses/python.mk.) To elaborate, I believe the expected behavior is: 1) if no ports are installed then DEFAULT_VERSIONS behaves the same as PYTHON_DEFAULT_VERSION (this, it does). 2) if python is already installed then DEFAULT_VERSIONS behaves the same as PYTHON_VERSION (this, it does NOT). Both patches achieve this goal. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
