cd /usr/ports/www/mod_python35 && make clean && make

www/mod_python35 cannot build against python3.

Two bugs. 

Bug 1: it expects -lpython3 when the installed library is -lpython3.5m

Bug 2: handling of .pyc and .pyo files during make install doesn't recognize the python3 sub-directory model of cypython compile during the make phase and so fails to install named objects listed in pkg-plist

attachment make-lpython3 documents first problem.

attachment make.log documents compile phase with symlink to make -lpython3 work

attacmnent make-install.log documents make install failure.

all run on a clean jail made from FreeBSD10.3 updated.

Comment 3 George Michaelson 2016-09-07 02:26:33 UTC 
I had to set make.conf DEFAULT_VERSIONS= python=3.5 because the Mk/ requested preferred versions puts 2.7 before any 3 version of Python and this causes the port to install Python2.7

If the port is actually wired *on FreeBSD* to version 2.7 it should be set explicitly in the port. Depending on a system wide setting feels wrong.

in 2013 mod_python was released including support for python3. So wiring this to 2 on FreeBSD is not good IMO

Thanks for the report!

The Makefile's are changed to request explicit python:2.7
