Amaury Forgeot d'Arc <amaur...@gmail.com> added the comment: So the presence of os.symlink depends on some dynamic privilege?
It seems to me that it's the first time in Python. For example, os.chroot() is always available on Unix, even when the user is not root. Of course the call will fail at runtime. Why not simply raise an exception when the user has not enough privileges? (I mean OSError or WindowsError of course, not AttributeError) ---------- nosy: +amaury.forgeotdarc _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9333> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
