8:28 AM - Update
The python 2.1 port has been fixed. We finally have working python on MidnightBSD. We will attempt to port a recent version of Python soon, but the older version was much easier to get working.
I will be experimenting with the package build system later today. If the scripts work with python 2.1 or can easily be back ported, I should be able to build packages on the next snapshot or possibly beta release. Including packages is a requirement for installing the graphical environment as we want to use ports to ease upgrades and allow us to automate software updates in the future.
