Thanks for this updated list Stuart, this was also previously highlighted here with my thoughts on a plan at that time: https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-ports&m=160245446411390&w=2 (although a few of the things mentioned on that thread have since been addressed). > For opencv, digikam and nomacs don't appear to need python parts at all, > let alone py2, I don't think dropping py2 from there is likely to cause > much upset. interesting, hadn't looked at the ports with maintainers myself yet. but will look at if maintainers don't tackle. in which case, thanks for the hints. > > For boost, I don't see anything with a listed wantlib on any type of > the boost-numpy libs.

Getting boost moved over would be a huge help. I think it's one of the last big stumbling blocks. > For this reason I think that we need a py2-numpy for now I don't know if we need it just yet? I'd like to at least finish trying to see how much stuff can be moved over. I had a rough sketch of a plan for everything apart from some of the games to be honest so I think we can make a lot more progress before we need a py2-numpy port.
