Note that we only know that the test fails on FreeBSD 7.2. The current release is FreeBSD 8.1. The 8.x series might work just fine. I don't know which test is failing under 7.2. Has anyone tested it under 7.3 or 8.x? bye Philip _______________________________________________ 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
