--- Comment #18 from Martin Wilke <miwi@FreeBSD.org> ---
Hi,

Actually I was about to commit that wheel framework to ports the other day,=
 but
decided to keep it on hold, for 2 reasons,

1) flavors will enter the ports tree very soon, which will solve many probl=
ems
in particular with multiple concurrent py versions which means bigger chang=
es
to the python framework is needed.=20

2) I agree with John that bundled pip/setuptools might be a step backwards =
in
terms of security because if pip or setuptools got a security problem we wi=
ll
have to wait till pythonxX catches up on that. Which is most likely a bad i=
dea.

That all said I think it's better to wait till flavors enters the portstree=
 and
address this issue together with the needed changes to the python framework.

- Martin
