As it turns out, 3.3(+)'s test.support has an _is_gui_available function that prevents the hang, added in issue9931. Ironically, it was not added to 2.7 because the 2.7 buildbots weren't showing symptoms...because the tests weren't actually being run. I'll work on trying to backport the patch that added _is_gui_available, but my experience with ctypes is practically nil, so if anyone can get to it before I can post a patch, don't hold off on my account. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17883> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
