Since multiprocessing also depends on threading, the change has broken the "AMD64 Fedora without threads 3.x" buildbot. I had not realized that the buildbots ran the test suite using multiple processes. I am not sure how best to refactor things -- I don't think multiprocessing should import test.support. Maybe we should just live with the duplication. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12098> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
