It's going to be a week or two before I'll be able to get back to the one machine on which it crashes. If the original poster can provide any additional information (crash logs, etc) before then I'll try to have a look. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Alan McIntyre (alanmcintyre) Date: 2007-05-15 01:53 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1115903 Originator: NO I downloaded the file from the URL given above, and when I tried to decompress it in a single shot (with bz2.decompress), python crashes. Reading the raw bz2 data from file into a string in memory works ok, but attempting to use bz2.decompress on that data causes the crash. I could only get this to happen under 2.5.1 on a Windows XP machine (media center edition); it seems to work ok on OSX (Python 2.5) and Linux (both 2.4.4 and the current trunk). I will be able to take a closer look at this tomorrow when I have access to a Windows machine with a compiler on it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Georg Brandl (gbrandl) Date: 2007-05-13 16:54 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=849994 Originator: NO Can you try to take the .tar.bz2 file and unpack it yourself using Python's bz2 module? We can then find out where exactly the segfault occurs. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1714773&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
