Bugzilla Automation <bugzi...@freebsd.org> has asked freebsd-python (Nobody) <python@FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback: Bug 278715: lang/python311: make libmpdec a hard dependency https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=278715
--- Description --- According to various CPython issues the C version of decimal is now assumed to be always present. Example: https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/118164 I think it might be a good idea to remove the libmpdec optional install and make it a hard dependency like libffi. Arch Linux has just done the same: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/python/-/issues/10
