Comment (by sean@…):

 Replying to [comment:7 lucractius@…]:
 > This needs to be looked at, either the feature is easy or it is hard,
 can we get an answer which guides progress? Lack of python2 and python3
 shortcuts leaves macports out of line with other package management tools
 and makes it harder to use.

 I agree. This is a historic failure of python 2.6+ not including a python2
 link but is easy enough to fix in MacPorts. How do other package managers
 do this? How should MacPorts? I guess we should leave the current port
 select for python untouched and just add a python2 and python3 select
 group?
