I will add databases/py25-bsddb soon, for mail/py-spambayes using, which can only use Python 2.5 > x11-toolkits/py-tkinter - (current port) > x11-toolkits/py3-tkinter - (I want to add, suiting for > Python 3+) Please have a look at ports/136198, which makes py-tkinter work for both python 2.x and 3.x. I would like your comments. Also, there is ports/136199 for making databases/py-gdbm work for python 3.x, comments welcomed, too. > Ideally, in the future while python3 as default version, > that will be follow I guess. > > x11-toolkits/py-tkinter - (meta port depending on PYTHON_DEFAULT_VERSION) > x11-toolkits/py2-tkinter - (suiting for Python 2.x, modified from original > x11-toolkits/py-tkinter) > x11-toolkits/py3-tkinter - (suiting for Python 3+) > > I think that strategy is reasonable.

I like this convention, and I prefer have py-* being as a master port, work both for every python version. Let py2-*, py3-*, and even py25*-, py24*-, py31*- as slave ports by setting USE_PYTHON to specified version in the Makefile. Anybody likes this suggestion?
