Hi python ports folks,
I want to know your ideas and suggestions.
Right now, there are 2 major python branches, python 2.x
and 3.x. Most ports uses python 2.x as their supported
version python.
But for i18n user, python 3+ is better than python 2.x,
at least for me. So I'm developing some tools and
utilities using python 3.0. And encountered a problem,
how would I use 3rd party's python 3+ libraries even
simultaneously with python2 environment. To use python 2.x
as default python is reasonable, because most python
applications and libraries use it. But I want to use
python3 concurrently.
Easy and non-impact solution is to add ports with
py3- prefix I guess. For example, right now I want to
python3 verion x11-toolkits/py-tkinter.
x11-toolkits/py-tkinter - (current port)
x11-toolkits/py3-tkinter - (I want to add, suiting for
Python 3+)
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. So I am thinking to
add some python3+ libraries with py3- prefix if there is
no objections.
Are there any more good ideas and solutions? I want to
know your ideas.
Thanks :)
