Either 1- make the code that's running waitpid catch eintr and retry (this is arguably a bug in the python stdlib) 2- make the enclosing process not listen for whatever signal is causing this to trap 3- it may be that as a workaround you can call into multiprocessing repeatedly, but that might not work strace may help you find out what signal it is. I fixed something similar in test_for_merge.py a few months ago. -- Martin _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
