Currently the mail/py-milter port cotains the line USE_PYTHON=2.4 which means it always pulls in python24 as a dependency, even if a newer Python version is already installed. However, the py-milter port works perfectly fine with Python 2.5 and 2.6 (not with 3.x, though). It's not necessary to install an old Python version. The patch below changes the requirement, so any newer 2.x version is accepted (note that Python's C API is stable across a major version number). How-To-Repeat: Install Python (the current default version is 2.6), then try to install mail/py-milter. It will install the old Python 2.4 as a dependency.
