Description Daniel Engberg freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2021-06-09 19:24:46 UTC 
If a port uses shebangfix on .py files without utilizing/pulling in python it'll silently fail.
Comment 1 Matthias Andree freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2022-10-27 19:02:50 UTC 
for me it failed noisily when preparing a security/openvpn-devel patch, https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/commit/security/openvpn-devel?id=bb24536ac02a721fdc6657a2ff5e43c0c71ae54e did complain in stage-qa here with Error: '/usr/local/bin/python' is an invalid shebang you need USES=shebangfix for 'share/examples/openvpn/sample-scripts/totpauth.py'
Although it had replaced the original /usr/bin/python3 with /usr/local/bin/python (and default LOCALBASE).
Comment 2 Nuno Teixeira freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2023-03-29 09:23:08 UTC 
Same here updating print/paps with meson:

USES+= shebangfix
SHEBANG_FILES= scripts/src-to-paps

Any workaround?
Comment 3 Nuno Teixeira freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2023-03-29 09:29:36 UTC 
(...)

Fixed by adding python to USES.
Comment 4 Daniel Engberg freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2023-03-29 11:38:02 UTC 
The workaround is to use python:env unless the port actually depends on python
