New submission from Oskar Skog: This is a platform specific bug. Only noticed this on NetBSD 6.1 x86-32 on a VirtualBox machine.
To me, the patches for NetBSD do not look relevant to subprocess or core stuff. http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/pkgsrc/lang/python27/patches/?only_with_tag=MAIN Test: #!/usr/pkg/bin/python import subprocess subprocess.Popen(['true']) print('Program finished.') # END OF FILE On an unaffected platform it will print "Program finished." and exit, on an affected platform it will print "Program finished." and hang. ---------- components: Interpreter Core messages: 281773 nosy: oskog97 priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: [NetBSD] interpreter hangs on exit after call to subprocess.Popen() type: behavior versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue28807> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
