I would have gone straight to bugzilla from freebsd-ports had I not been instructed to try posting here first.
I am new to FreeBSD (just this week) and pkg is surprisingly easy to use. The first thing I installed on FreeBSD was PyPy2. I've used CPython 3.x for years, and it does not suit all use cases. PyPy is independent of CPython, though on installing it from ports, it says it is deprecated due to depending on the EOL'd "Python 2.7" PyPy3 is not what I need, but since PyPy continues to support PyPy 2 I believe this deprecation is in error. Deprecating CPython 2.7 makes sense; deprecating PyPy 2 less so; the latter is an actively maintained implementation. It was suggested I post here about this. If this is unfixable and you are going to remove PyPy 2 anyway, I would still like to be put in touch with the maintainer so that I can compile PyPy 2 for FreeBSD for my own purposes. If this deprecation is found to be in error and PyPy2 is kept, that's even better of course. Please advise. _______________________________________________ freebsd-python@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-python To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-python-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
