Hi Stuart,

I think that I know the problem.
pkg_add will search python in stable directory before searching for it
in release directory and it find python.  However it will only find
version 3, because there is no python 2 in stable directory.

So it will stop searching (because it found python) and report that
there is no python 2 available.

I had similar problem with pkg_info, but I don't know Perl well, so I
couldn't fix the issue.  See my older email:
