Comments: As a python port maintainer, I have noticed python24's harcoded dependency on tk is not at all beneficial to python ports like mine. Installing a rather small python app such as hellanzb triggers:

o python2.4 installation (This may seem overkill to a casual observer, as the app could get by with OS X's base python. However it's necessary for a couple dependencies/and we'll need a darwinport python installed since we are a 'PortGroup python' port anyway, so this is understandable) o tcl is installed as a tk dependency o tk is installed

The last two hellanzb did not need, and in this case only serve to lengthen hellanzb's installation -- significantly so unless we're on a g5 tower and don't care

I'm sure the dependency is there for a reason, like an already existing port requires python24 with tk installed

This situation would benefit from allowing ports to depend on variants. Are there plans for this or other similar solutions in the future?

Thanks

1. python24 now doesnt need tk anymore, we now have a py-tkinter port for the tk module (I assume this

will make some people happy..)

2. commited
