> Horacio, I can't speak for Homebrew or the contents of the article you
linked to, but MacPorts ports, including pythons, ''are'' (''of course'')
intended for use by users. There's no need to install a separate copy of
python outside of MacPorts that you then have to separately remember to
update.
Ryan, my comment was informed in part by the fact that I also commented in
this very same issue 8 years ago with my difficulties (see comment:6). My
comment never got addressed. Eventually I dealt with it, because
fortunately I can debug stuff myself.
I appreciate MacPorts wants to be used by Python users - would be nice. I
wonder what it does better than Homebrew for that to make sense. 8 years
later, that guide for beginners still resonates too much. I am not trying
again, and personally I'm not recommending others they do.
