Thanks (to /f too). That was the part that I was missing. It makes sense now. I made the patch to do this. It's called before each class' test run in regrtest.py. I would prefer to set the locale before each test method run, but I need to muck with unittest for that IIRC. There were 2 failures. One was in test_email which needs the C locale for generating the proper timestamp. The other was (IIRC) in test_re, 2 methods failed. So we are hopefully in decent shape. n _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
