Re: [116220] trunk/dports/python
Those packages were blocking the removal of python24 subports that I maintain (e.g py-elementtree). 100% agree with removing at least the python24 modules like Sean said. Also, people are quite capable of pulling python24’s modules out of our repository after removal if they need them. While Sean has a use for python24 itself, it has security problems and is not supported. I feel it also should get removed and used in a local repository if possible, but I’m perfectly content with doing just modules for now. Realistically, most modules below python27 should get axed.

Re: [116220] trunk/dports/python
I agree. I think all py24-* ports should be removed now. Removing py24-* ports will change the default python to 2.7 for people who (mistakenly) install py-foo. I would not object to everything less than py27-* leaving too but maybe later. Cheers!

Re: [116220] trunk/dports/python
The one thing I'd caution against is removing any py24* ports that have no newer versions. I cannot think of any off the top of my head, but I guess that would just be something to check for while removing the py24* ports, i.e., making sure that they have a version available for a newer python before removing it.

Removing old Python versions
(was: [116220] trunk/dports/python) On Wed, Jan 22, 2014 at 5:11 PM, Jeremy Lavergne wrote: Realistically, most modules below python27 should get axed. I don't have anything against removing python 2.4 (or 2.5 for that matter), but there is one specific use case speaking against removing python 2.6 just now (or rather: removing all but one python from the 2.x series). Some ports depend on wxPython 2.8, but wxPython 2.8 and 3.0 conflict with each other. One possible workaround is to install py26-wxpython-2.8 and py27-wxpython-3.0, so that one can still use old ports with Python 2.6 and modern ports with Python 2.7. If all python versions 2.4, 2.5, 2.6 get removed, we suddenly get a conflict we cannot work around. This specific problem should hopefully disappear in a year (or two or three, ... depending on how long we'll tolerate abandonware). That is, unless we'll have to deal with another conflict between wxPython and Phoenix.
