Are there some hints somewhere for a person wanting to transition the default in ports to python 3? I see in /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.default-versions.mk ********************************** # Possible values: 9.2, 9.3, 9.4, 9.5, 9.6 PGSQL_DEFAULT?= 9.5 # Possible values: 5.6, 7.0, 7.1 PHP_DEFAULT?= 5.6 # Possible values: 2.7, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6 PYTHON_DEFAULT?= 2.7 # Possible values: 2.7 PYTHON2_DEFAULT?= 2.7 # Possible values: 3.4, 3.5, 3.6 PYTHON3_DEFAULT?= 3.6 # Possible values: 2.2, 2.3, 2.4 RUBY_DEFAULT?= 2.3 ********************************** PGSQL & RUBY options included to possibly hint at this is the only documentation available, AFAICS. Yet, when I set PYTHON_DEFAULT to 3.6, I get thunderbird and firefox and chrome etc etc failing. I only wrote my first hello world in python (3!) a few days ago, so likely I'm a moron.
