Zitat von David Demelier <demelier.david@gmail.com>: > Hello, > > At the moment, it's very hard to install python 2.7 and 3.3 because of > the unification of the python ports.

This sounds like a pkgng issue to me with building lang/python the wrong way. Should be discussed with pkgng@ separately. > What I would like to propose, is to remove the non-versioned > binaries such as : > > /usr/local/bin/2to3 > /usr/local/bin/python > /usr/local/bin/python-config > > This should completely be removed from every version's pkg-plist.

I do not see a problem here. > This will allow the installation of python 3.3 and python 2.7 at the > same time. This is already possible (see my post on ports@). Cheers Marcus
