>Description:
There is new release of Python (version 1.5.1) and a few patches
already, so the pkg needs to be upgraded.
Besides that, our Python isn't compiled with readline
support nor Tcl/Tk support. These are often needed features
and are trivial to add, as both readline and Tcl/Tk are in pkgsrc
tree.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
As there needs to be changed quite a number of pkg files
(Makefile, files/Setup, pkg/PLIST-mi, some patches/patch-?? deleted),
I've made new package based on the old one. It can be found on:
http://www.ics.muni.cz/~dolecek/NetBSD/python151.tar.gz
Support for readline can be switched off when variable
PYTHON_NO_READLINE is defined. The same for Tcl/Tk with
variable PYTHON_NO_TK.
