thanks (again).  so for a normal port, is there any guidance on whether
i should do this or not?  is there a policy on this?

this is a normal (desktop) application, not a library, so normally there
would be no reason to build it for all Python versions.

i don't see anything about this in https://wiki.freebsd.org/Python/PortsPolicy

In order to specify USE_PYTHON=allflavors, all ports in the dependency chain have to specify it. This isn't really a policy issue, rather a technical one.
