Ports using USE_PYTHON=distutils are now flavored. They will
automatically get flavors (py27, py34, py35, py36) depending on what
versions they support.
There is also a USE_PYTHON=flavors for ports that do not use distutils
but need FLAVORS to be set. A USE_PYTHON=noflavors can be set if
using distutils but flavors are not wanted.
A new USE_PYTHON=optsuffix that will add PYTHON_PKGNAMESUFFIX has been
added to cope with Python ports that did not have the Python
PKGNAMEPREFIX but are flavored.
USES=python now also exports a PY_FLAVOR variable that contains the
current python flavor. It can be used in dependency lines when the
port itself is not python flavored. For example, deskutils/calibre.
By default, all the flavors are generated. To only generate flavors
for the versions in PYTHON2_DEFAULT and PYTHON3_DEFAULT, define
BUILD_DEFAULT_PYTHON_FLAVORS in your make.conf.
In all the ports with Python dependencies, the *_DEPENDS entries MUST
end with the flavor so that the framework knows which to build/use.
This is done by appending '@${PY_FLAVOR}' after the origin (or
@${FLAVOR} if in a Python module with Python flavors, as the content
will be the same). For example:
RUN_DEPENDS= ${PYTHON_PKGNAMEPREFIX}six>0:devel/py-six@${PY_FLAVOR}

this environment in poudriere, CC is not set to the default of /usr/bin/cc and
a cross-compile toolchain is used. We need to hand edit this so that the run
time configuration for python matches what the FreeBSD base system provides.

Use readline from ports (USES= readline:port) and patch
setup.py to ignore readline from base. The patch is necessary for
FreeBSD < 1100000, as after this the readline library became an
INTERNALLIB, see base r268461 [1]
Link devel/readline against termcapw instead of termcap is part of
this change, see ports r444463 [2]
Note that this is the **ports** approach for getting Python curses
module working with Unicode. The other way is splitting libncurses
into separate libncurses and libtinfo in base, for which an open
issue exists [3].
Apart from Python language ports, at least www/rtv and
sysutils/py-ranger ports have been tested to work correctly
(display Unicode) after this change.

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.
