What's of particular concern for me is that the machine had this in its
/etc/make.conf when it was building it's own ports:

DEFAULT_VERSIONS+=python=2.7

I've since removed it.

Since then, the machine has been brought to 12R-p10 and I've made a poudriere
instance for it on different hardware which has nothing special in its own 
make.conf. I fed it a ports list obtained on the client through 
*portmaster --list-origins | sort -u | tee portslist.txt*, transferred that to
poudriere and it built the ports, and all the flavoured python ones were py36-*

So, if I *pkg upgrade -f* on the client (which now knows to use my poudriere
instance), would it be reasonable for me to expect all py27* to be upgraded 
to py36*, without stuff breaking?

thanks,
