Short answer is NO. There were significant changes made in python3 that require significant changes in most programs written in python2. This has been a huge issue that will continue until at least the end of the year when python27 is scheduled for removal. Unless a few ports still requiring python2 get updated, the removal will almost certainly be delayed. For example, both chrome and firefox require python2. In most cases, the changes required are trivial, but not always.
Since this is a change in the Python language, it applies to all operating systems... Linux, Windows, MacOS as well as FreeBSD. -- Kevin Oberman, Part time kid herder and retired Network Engineer E-mail: rkober...@gmail.com PGP Fingerprint: D03FB98AFA78E3B78C1694B318AB39EF1B055683 On Fri, Aug 7, 2020 at 8:04 PM Chris <portmas...@bsdforge.com> wrote: > I'm currently performing a big buildup for a large deployment. > I built world && kernel in the build jail, and performed the > install into another jail for the port/package buildup that > will in turn be used for the deployment STABLE-12@363918 && > PORTS@544342, respectively. > Problem _appears_ to be with Python as maintained in the ports > tree. make.conf(5) defines only: > DEFAULT_VERSIONS+=python=3.7 python3=3.7 > performing a make config-recursive in xorg-server/ until dialogs > no longer appear.
