Subject: python2.4: Wrong exist status for os.system, os.poepen, etc.
Package: python2.4
Version: 2.4.4-2
Severity: normal
-- System Information:
Debian Release: 4.0
APT prefers testing
APT policy: (800, 'testing'), (70, 'stable'), (60, 'unstable')
Architecture: i386 (i686)
Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash
Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-3-k7
Locale: LANG=it_IT.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=it_IT.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8)
I send this to python-list also, so someone can tell if he/she can
(not) reproduce
the same behavior
The os.system() (but all the other funciont with similar behavior) reports
wrong exit status. I can reproduce the bug in the following way
create /tmp/x.c:
#include <stdlib.h>
int main(void){
exit(20);
}
$ cd /tmp
$ make x
$./x
$echo $?
20
$ python
give the following commands:
import os
os.system("/tmp/x")
5120
the same for
x=os.popen("/tmp/x")
x.read()
''
x.close()
5120
Greetings
