FYI, from some quick testing in a f12 chroot and creation of a test case outside of bitbake, it appears we're hitting http://bugs.python.org/issue5331, whose root cause is http://bugs.python.org/issue5155, which refers to http://bugs.python.org/issue5313. Looking into this now, it's possible we could replace the appropriate method of Process in our subclass with the one with the fix. -- Christopher Larson clarson at kergoth dot com Founder - BitBake, OpenEmbedded, OpenZaurus Maintainer - Tslib Senior Software Engineer, Mentor Graphics _______________________________________________ Bitbake-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bitbake-dev
