Users with a GDB that supports [1] Python extensions will automatically
load the extra debugging extensions when debugging programs that are
linked with libpythonX.Y.so.foo.
This enables extensions like 'py-bt' and 'py-frame' as described in
the Fedora Wiki Article: Easier Python Debugging [2], which can be
useful for debugging Python program state from crashes in C extensions,
for example.

The FreeBSD Python team welcomes Python 2.7.9 to the Ports tree!
Announcement: https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-279/
Changelog: http://hg.python.org/cpython/raw-file/v2.7.9/Misc/NEWS
Important changes for this release:
- The entirety of Python 3.4's ssl module has been backported for Python
2.7.9. See PEP 466 for justification.
- HTTPS certificate validation using the system's certificate store is
now enabled by default. See PEP 476 for details.
- SSLv3 has been disabled by default in httplib and its reverse
dependencies due to the POODLE attack.
- The ensurepip module module has been backported, which provides the
pip package manager in every Python 2.7 installation. See PEP 477.
- While updating, try to improve the NIS detection for FreeBSD

preparatory step to convert bsd.python.mk into a USES file.
- Remove the shared/static build separation, which is the source of many
problems and even more hacks. Instead build only the shared version, which
greatly simplifies the build.
- Remove the FPECTL option to align the build with the clean "template" from
lang/python34.
- Remove support for GNU pthreads via the PTH option. It is a permanent
troublemaker for ports using Python and pthread support.
- Remove PORTDATA and EXAMPLES. Those will be made available via separate
ports.
- Add a new DEBUG option to enable debug builds as for lang/python34.
- Remove bin/smtpd. Only Python2.7 wants to install it, but we'd like to keep
it consistent with the other lang/pythonXX ports
- Add CPE support.
- Reactivate curses/ncurses support.
- Use buildbottest in the regression-test: target.
- Move pkg-message to the right place.

and lang/python2 and lang/python3. This change brings us closer to the goal
of making Python ports usable with different Python versions at the same
time.
- Add a new lang/python2 port to handle the symlinks for bin/python2,
bin/idle2, bin/pydoc2 and so on.
- Add a new lang/python3 port to handle the symlinks for bin/python3,
bin/idle3, bin/pydoc3 and so on.
- Bump the PORTREVISION on all lang/python* ports.
. lang/python27: 2.7.3 -> 2.7.5
. lang/python32: 3.2.3 -> 3.2.4
. lang/python33: 3.3.0 -> 3.3.1
- update Mk/bsd.python.mk with new versions
- mark lang/python26 and lang/python31 as deprecated (set them to
upstream EoL dates)
- update docs (lang/python-doc-html)
- align databases/py-bsddb patch for python27 - most of it was applied
upstream. Raise BDB version to 4.3 atleast, according to
upstream requirements.

- trim Makefile headers
- remove leading indefinite article from COMMENT
- use PYTHON shortcut in MASTER_SITES
- whitespace fixes
- remove checks for unsupported versions of FreeBSD
- use static value ``33'' instead of PYTHON_SUFFIX in lang/python33/pkg-plist,
because this value is not supposed to be changed across the branch and for
consistency with other python3 ports
- remove conflicts in lang/python-mode.el with not more existing python-2.4
${PYTHON_DEFAULT_VERSION}, this generates conflicting packages.
- Create symbolic links as PEP 394 [1] suggests. ${PYTHON_DEFAULT_VERSION}
will create python and python${MAJOR_VERSION} links. In current default,
lang/python27 will create: python -> python2 -> python2.7
- Introduce ${PYTHON3_DEFAULT_VERSION}, which will handle bin/python3 link.
At this point, lang/python33 will create python3 -> python3.3
- Minor cleanups
* Trim Makefile headers
* Remove ${OSVERSION} detection for xz, whihc is done by USE_XZ

People who really want to use older python version for both python branches

Discussed on python@ long ago.
Python 2.6 will be the next default python version when enough
testings of consumer ports are done. The new "2to3" program is
renamed to 2to3-2.6 and 2to3-3.0 for each version, respectively.

- Now, lang/python is just a meta-port which depends on lang/python25.
- And all versions of Python ports have short version identifier in its
package name; python25-2.5, python24-2.4.3 and etc.
- Also you must upgrade all python modules after lang/python updated,
cd /usr/ports/lang/python && make upgrade-site-packages
- Give maintainership of Python ports to the new python@ group which
includes me, alexbl@ and others.
