New submission from Mark Summerfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: When I try to run IDLE in Py30b3 I get a traceback, then the main window appears with an error message box and an OK button; once I click OK, IDLE goes away.
$ ~/opt/python30b3/bin/idle Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> File "/home/mark/opt/python30b3/lib/python3.0/idlelib/run.py", line 76, in main sockthread.set_daemon(True) AttributeError: 'Thread' object has no attribute 'set_daemon' It looks like there's been some mixup with threading... in an earlier beta there was setDaemon(), then it became set_daemon(), and now it is back to setDaemon() again. And unfortunately, the obvious fix (change the name to setDaemon()), although it gets past this problem, just leads to another: $ ~/opt/python30b3/bin/idle # using setDaemon Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> File "/home/mark/opt/python30b3/lib/python3.0/idlelib/run.py", line 76, in main sockthread.setDaemon(True) File "/home/mark/opt/python30b3/lib/python3.0/threading.py", line 674, in setDaemon "Thread.daemon property", DeprecationWarning) File "/home/mark/opt/python30b3/lib/python3.0/warnings.py", line 18, in showwarning file.write(formatwarning(message, category, filename, lineno, line)) TypeError: idle_formatwarning_subproc() takes exactly 4 positional arguments (5 given) I did run make test and got 300 tests OK with 22 skipped all expected on linux2. ---------- components: IDLE messages: 71611 nosy: mark severity: normal status: open title: IDLE does not run with Py30b3 type: crash versions: Python 3.0 _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3628> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
