Hmm, interesting, I can try and see if I can reproduce it on more systems. So the machine I was building on is an IBM x3650 with 2 quad core 2.5GHz xeons. Kernel is amd64, userspace is i386 wheezy, chroot is i386 jessie buildd variant. So I just tried some more tests. jessie-amd64 on sid-amd64: works jessie-i386 on sid-amd64: works jessie-i386 on wheezy-i386(with amd64 kernel): fails Same chroot copied to a sid machine (so 3.16 kernel instead of 3.2 kernel: works It would appear that pytest fails on python 3.4.2 when the underlying kernel is 3.2 for some reason that I can't even imagine what is. I will try upgrading the kernel on our build machine to the wheezy-backprot of 3.16 and see if that solves the problem and report back. -- Len Sorensen _______________________________________________ Python-modules-team mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/python-modules-team
