Installing PyOpenGL with MacPorts

I'm trying to install PyOpenGL with macports, and I'd like to use Python 2.7, which I have also installed with macports. However, only Python 2.4 seems to have access to PyOpenGL when I install it with: sudo port install py-opengl

Anyone know what is going on? How can I get python 2.7 to see PyOpenGL?

Use sudo port py27-opengl instead.

In general, with MacPorts python-related ports, the Python version to which it applies is encoded in its name: py25-, py26-, py27-, py31-, py32-. They started doing this after Python 2.4, so py- are generally the legacy Python 2.4 versions. There are other ports that use variants to select which Python to link with. These are called out in the port descriptions, like these. For example, to install boost for Python 2.7, you would use sudo port boost +python27.
