Hello, I encountered difficulties when I tried to use the auparse module in Python 3.3. I would like to use this module with a modern version of the interpreter due to severe memory leaks in my auparse-based script that is run in Python 2.6.6 (which is default for RHEL 6.4). The problem is described here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23369937/python-memory-consumption-on-linux-physical-and-virtual-memory-are-growing-whil. Surely it can be my own fault (cyclic links preventing the gc work or something else), but some people from Stackoverflow community advised me to use Python 3+ since it works with dynamic memory more properly. I would like to do it first.
So I tried to import auparse module from the audit-libs-python into the interpreter that was distributed with the latest version of LibreOffice: [root@vitaly registration]# yum info audit-libs-python Loaded plugins: product-id, refresh-packagekit, security, subscription-manager This system is not registered to Red Hat Subscription Management. You can use subscription-manager to register.
