So, again, thanks to Justin and Alex, we have a python2.3 buildbot up and running!
Here is a laundry list of python2.3 problems: graph_test: random.getrandbits does not exist in python2.3; required for tests. installation problem: no module _bsddb, pysqlite2 metabase_test: Exception exceptions.AttributeError: "DbfilenameShelf instance has no attribute 'writeback'" in ignored pygr.downloader: uses subprocess I've fixed the random.getrandbits problem by switching to using random.randint, and I've asked Justin to install bsddb and pysqlite2 for python2.3. I'm posting the getrandbits fix to github under 'buildbot-fixes' -- another e-mail soon. We have to look into metabase_test to figure out what's going on with the writeback attribute issue. Chris, I'm going to assign this to you - tag! Issue 81. pygr.downloader uses subprocess to run gunzip and unzip, and this could easily, but maybe not safely?, changed over to commands. We could also look into using the gzip and zipfile modules. This should be fixed by someone other than me and has been entered as issue 80 and assigned to Namshin. Down the road we should think about how to let everyone make use of our buildbot install to test their own code. The easiest way to do this might be to hook up a set of buildbots to a specific github branch for which people have push permissions... cheers, --titus -- C.
