--8t9RHnE3ZwKMSgU+ Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Some Zope ports, require libxml2 python bindings for python 2.1. Currently with libxml2, you can only have a package with one version only (specified at runtime). bsd.python.mk, and most python ports, already support having multiple versions with the same origin. eg. py21-foo, py23-foo with PKG_PREFIX Looking in the ports tree, I see that databases/py-PyGreSQL solves this problem by being a subport of datbases/postgresql7 I'm thinking of making a subport textproc/py-libxml2, so that instead of a WITH_PYTHON knob, users can just build the libxml2 python package as a port, and have python libxml2 packages for different python versions if needed. Is this the right way to do it? If it's ok, I'll start working on a patch and port. --=20 PGP ID:6FFEFD7F FreeBSD 5.2-CURRENT i386 11:34pm up 9 days, 11:50, 4 users, load averages: 1.65, 1.58, 1.58 --8t9RHnE3ZwKMSgU+ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFABWVgDAqnLW/+/X8RAqrUAKDd5y/W0KGHL/XNYAYT6WovPsxnlQCffJV9 j9mQst3bBgX+joSPPyuQ+Ec= =o7QF -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --8t9RHnE3ZwKMSgU+--
