A pkg repository that builds for Python != 2.7 is whats needed. Longer term provided by the project, but in the meantime something a contributor could easily provide as a service to the community with poudriere (and dogfood themselves) If bandwidth might be a concern, come and talk to us on IRC. I have a few ideas on how we might be able to help someone like that :) >> Also a quick note that while we (Team Python) are aiming for multiple >> concurrently installed versions of python packages in a single >> environment, there are some rough edges which precludes some scenarios. > > Is there a list of those somewhere?

Issues have revolved mostly around: - Conflicting files in doc/share/etc (need to be prefixed) - mva@ (cc'd) has had a patch in the works for this - Depending (directly or indirectly) on a PythonXY version of a port that doesnt support XY There are likely some other related issues listed here on our FreeBSD Python wiki page: https://wiki.freebsd.org/Python Any extra eyes & help would be appreciated, there's plenty of low effort high value things people can do in team Python@ at the moment to make the ecosystem better for everyone. >> Have a play and let us know what works and what doesn't, and we're >> always available on #freebsd-python (freenode IRC) if you'd like to have >> a chat > > Will do, thanks!
