Or not? No, it won't. The symlink depends on the DEFAULT_VERSIONS entry in your /etc/make.conf or the ports default. Right now Python 2.7 is the default for the FreeBSD ports tree, so the symlinks are only created for Python 2.7. If you install Python 3.4 or another version, they won't be overridden. Cheers Marcus
