New submission from Simon Conseil:
Hi,
There is an issue in the webbrowser module for Mac OS when the BROWSER
environment variable is set:
Python 2.7.10 (default, Jul 14 2015, 19:46:27)
[GCC 4.2.1 Compatible Apple LLVM 6.0 (clang-600.0.39)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
Jedi is not installed, falling back to readline
Python shell history: /Users/simon/.pythonhistory
>>> import webbrowser
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File
"/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/webbrowser.py",
line 669, in <module>
cmd = _synthesize(cmdline, -1)
File
"/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/webbrowser.py",
line 94, in _synthesize
if controller and name.lower() == controller.basename:
AttributeError: 'MacOSXOSAScript' object has no attribute 'basename'
If I unset BROWSER then it works fine. The issue is that the MacOSXOSAScript
class overrides BaseBrowser's init without redifining the basename attribute.
So a simple fix is to remove the __init__ from MacOSXOSAScript (and I guess the
same applies to the MacOSX class). The same issue applies to python 3.4
