Who knows about pexpect and Sage's use of it? I certainly don't. I think a "big project" to review/refactor the pexpect interfaces is in order.
Several doctests involving pexpect are very flaky and cause regular non-reproducible failures. My impression is also that they are becoming more and more common (but that could be subjective due to the fact that we see less other failures). I am in particular struggling with #12221: somehow #11073 (remove the spkg/base repo) causes a lot of failures in the gp pexpect interface. I have been looking at this for days but don't understand what is going on. The fact that the failures are non-reproducible makes debugging a lot harder. So any help (or pointers to help) is appreciated, Jeroen. -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
