Dear Michael,
Thank you. Therefore, it might be better to remove python variant and to depend
on python by default. It is an implicit preparation for future gnubg, and as
you pointed, it is not a heavy burden for most people; the dependence on python
may be almost always satisfied.
By the way, is it possible to show a message like "pymysql or MySQLdb is
required to connect to MySQL database" when a user tries to use MySQL without
installing an appropriate python module? It would be helpful not only for
macports people but also many other users.
Thank you very much.
Regards,
Daisuke Takahashi
