>Description:
If you don't have python installed, attempting to run
make [anything] in a ports dir with a Makefile that sets
USE_PYTHON=true, results in warning messages such as:
"/usr/ports/Mk/bsd.python.mk", line 131: warning: "/usr/local/bin/python2.0 -c 'import sys; print sys.platform'" returned non-zero status
/usr/local/bin/python2.0: not found
"/usr/ports/Mk/bsd.python.mk", line 131: warning: "/usr/local/bin/python2.0 -c 'import sys; print sys.platform'" returned non-zero status
/usr/local/bin/python2.0: not found
etc.
>How-To-Repeat:
1. Ensure python-2.0 is NOT installed.
2. # cd /usr/ports/lang/python
3. # make fetch-list # or whatever
4. View exciting warnings.
>Fix:
The below patch silences the warnings, although perhaps PYTHON_PLATFORM
should be set to some default value, if python can't be found... although,
I can't actually see the use of any of those variables if python isn't
installed....
