We already know how to stop the errors from arising by modifying the Windows environment. In my particular case, it was sufficient to disable Windows Search Service and the TortoiseSVN Image Overlays. However, it would be *really* nice if the Python test suite just worked out of the box, and you didn't have to change your normal Windows environment. Or were you suggesting that there is some programmatic way for the test suite to create directories that disallow the Search Service, etc.? Steve -- I'm not *in*-sane. Indeed, I am so far *out* of sane that you appear a tiny blip on the distant coast of sanity. --- Bucky Katt, Get Fuzzy _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
