            Bug ID: 224242
           Summary: Some FLAVOR related changes
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Ports Framework
          Assignee: portmgr at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: FreeBSD at ShaneWare.Biz
                CC: freebsd-ports-bugs at FreeBSD.org

After the FLAVOR change I think there are a couple of things that still need to
be addressed that affect concurrent python port installs. As package repos now
have two flavours for many python ports, trying to install one using the pkg
origin will break the install due to conflicts.

1. USE_PYTHON=concurrent should be considered a default option, or part of
implementing flavour, maybe have noconcurrent if a port specifically doesn't
need it.

2. Using concurrent still has an issue of conflicting man pages, see bug
#220214 as a possibile solution for this.

3. If a port is python3 only then no default scripts exist, only the versioned
script is created. See bug #216479.

4. Would it be possible for pkg to record the package flavour so that it can be
queried? Maybe even a config option to control what flavours it will install?
