Nick Coghlan added the comment: I considered that problem of "subprocess invocation as a side-effect of import", but in this case the output is needed by the immediately following "register_X_browsers()" call, as it affects how those browsers get inserted into webbrowser._tryorder.
That means there isn't any obvious way to delay it without a fairly significant refactoring of how the module works :( ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29644> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
