cfr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: Although the active version of python on my machine is 2.5.2 and I have never had an alpha version installed, crash reports for python report the version as "2.5a0 (2.5alpha0)".
Version details: active version of python is from the current python.org dmg download for Mac OS X 10.4 i.e. the universal framework build. When starting python, I get: Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Feb 22 2008, 07:57:53) [GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5363)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. but in crash reports, I get: Command: Python Path: /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python Parent: bash [27154] Version: 2.5a0 (2.5alpha0) and python is given as version 2.5a0 in the binary image listing which follows. Darwin Kernel Version 8.11.0: Wed Oct 10 18:26:00 PDT 2007; root:xnu-792.24.17~1/RELEASE_PPC I think I did have 2.5.1 installed prior to installing 2.5.2 and I also have two older versions of python installed - 2.4 (also the python.org build) and 2.3 (as pre-installed by Apple) - but I never installed 2.5.0 or any version/candidate in the 2.5 line prior to 2.5.1. I'm not sure what further information might be helpful but would be happy to provide it on request. ---------- components: +None title: locale.getpreferredencoding() gives bus error on Mac OS X 10.4.11 PPC -> python version incorrectly reported in crash reports on Mac OS X 10.4.11 PPC type: crash -> behavior _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3362> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
