Package: python2.5
Version: 2.5-5
There is an obvious difference between redirecting stderr of the
following example on unstable (python2.5 2.5.2-1) and current stable
(python2.5 2.5-5), and I expect the correct behaviour to be just
like on unstable - shown below.
Short subprocess.call example:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/python2.5
import subprocess, os
def main():
try:
# stdout only.
ret = subprocess.call(['/usr/bin/scp', '-B',
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/remote/largefile', '.'],
stderr=subprocess.STDOUT)
except OSError, e:
print 'err: %s' % e
if __name__ == '__main__': main()
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Let the script be called myscript.py.
No redirection on unstable and stable is the same:
./myscript.py
largefile 0 0.0KB/s --:-- ETA
... and it works like expected, stdout of the subprocess -> python is
printed on the terminal.
The difference:
Redirecting stderr on unstable:
./myscript.py 2>stderrlog
largefile 0 0.0KB/s --:-- ETA
Redirecting stderr on stable:
./myscript.py 2>stderrlog
... nothing! Where is python's stdout?
Second try:
./myscript.py >/dev/stdout 2>stderrlog
.. nothing! Where is python's stdout?
Permissions are correct, stderrlog was writable in all cases.
I have tried this on multiple stable installations with the above
mentioned stable python2.5 package version, with the same result.
