Hello, Imagine the following scenario: I have both python2 and python3 installed. I want python2 to be the default version (lang/python port installs python -> python2.7, etc).
Then I want to build another port with python3 dependency. I put USE_PYTHON=3.3+ in port's Makefile, but it depends on lang/python which pulls python2.7 too. How can I build a python module with 3.X only dependency? Thanks.
