Bill Winslow added the comment: I've stumbled upon what appears to be a related issue, but I'm not sure it deserves its own bug report.
I compiled 3.4 on my LMDE (so essentially Debian testing) system, and aside from not building tkinter, various compression modules, etc., all went well. I ran `make test` with no errors, including the success of test_venv. (There were many and various warnings about deprecated code and calling str() on bytes instances, but I'm pretty sure none of it is related). I ran `sudo make altinstall` (to not nuke my current 3.3 from the repos), and to my surprise, it failed with the following error: running install_scripts copying build/scripts-3.4/pydoc3.4 -> /usr/local/bin copying build/scripts-3.4/2to3-3.4 -> /usr/local/bin copying build/scripts-3.4/idle3.4 -> /usr/local/bin copying build/scripts-3.4/pyvenv-3.4 -> /usr/local/bin changing mode of /usr/local/bin/pydoc3.4 to 755 changing mode of /usr/local/bin/2to3-3.4 to 755 changing mode of /usr/local/bin/idle3.4 to 755 changing mode of /usr/local/bin/pyvenv-3.4 to 755 rm /usr/local/lib/python3.4/lib-dynload/_sysconfigdata.py rm -r /usr/local/lib/python3.4/lib-dynload/__pycache__ /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ./Misc/python.man \ /usr/local/share/man/man1/python3.4.1 if test "xupgrade" != "xno" ; then \ case upgrade in \ upgrade) ensurepip="--altinstall --upgrade" ;; \ install|*) ensurepip="--altinstall" ;; \ esac; \ ./python -E -m ensurepip \ $ensurepip --root=/ ; \ fi Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/bill/py3.4/Python-3.4.0b1/Lib/runpy.py", line 160, in _run_module_as_main "__main__", fname, loader, pkg_name) File "/home/bill/py3.4/Python-3.4.0b1/Lib/runpy.py", line 73, in _run_code exec(code, run_globals) File "/home/bill/py3.4/Python-3.4.0b1/Lib/ensurepip/__main__.py", line 66, in <module> main() File "/home/bill/py3.4/Python-3.4.0b1/Lib/ensurepip/__main__.py", line 61, in main default_pip=args.default_pip, File "/home/bill/py3.4/Python-3.4.0b1/Lib/ensurepip/__init__.py", line 92, in bootstrap _run_pip(args + [p[0] for p in _PROJECTS], additional_paths) File "/home/bill/py3.4/Python-3.4.0b1/Lib/ensurepip/__init__.py", line 28, in _run_pip import pip File "/tmp/tmprwpsemxj/pip-1.5.rc1-py2.py3-none-any.whl/pip/__init__.py", line 10, in <module> File "/tmp/tmprwpsemxj/pip-1.5.rc1-py2.py3-none-any.whl/pip/util.py", line 17, in <module> File "/tmp/tmprwpsemxj/pip-1.5.rc1-py2.py3-none-any.whl/pip/_vendor/distlib/version.py", line 14, in <module> File "/tmp/tmprwpsemxj/pip-1.5.rc1-py2.py3-none-any.whl/pip/_vendor/distlib/compat.py", line 66, in <module> ImportError: cannot import name 'HTTPSHandler' make: *** [altinstall] Error 1 Note: I will certainly *not* be trying to `sudo make install`. In any case, the executable and modules were installed fine, so other than reporting it here, it's not causing me problems (so far). ---------- nosy: +Dubslow _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19744> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
