[issue8865] select.poll is not thread safe

[issue8860] Rounding in timedelta constructor is inconsistent with that in timedelta arithmetics
Mark Dickinson dicki...@gmail.com added the comment:
The accumulated error doesn't need to exceed 1; it just needs to be enough to
make (e.g.) leftover appear to be = 0.5 when it's actually just less than 0.5.
It shouldn't be too hard to find examples where this happens, but I haven't
thought about it.
I wonder if it would be justified to expose something like
int _PyLong_IsOdd(PyObject *self) {...}
Yes, that could work. I'd be happier with this if there are other uses (even
within longobject.c); there might well be, but I haven't looked. I also have
a mild preference for _PyLong_IsEven over _PyLong_IsOdd. :)

[issue8860] Rounding in timedelta constructor is inconsistent with that in timedelta arithmetics
Mark Dickinson dicki...@gmail.com added the comment:
An example where getting correct rounding is awkward: the following rounds up,
with or without the patch:
datetime.timedelta(seconds=0.6112295)
datetime.timedelta(0, 0, 611230)
But in this case, the result should actually be rounded down (with either
rounding mode), since the exact value of float('0.6112295') is a little less
than 0.6112295:
print(Decimal(0.6112295))
0.611229498116351207499974407255649566650390625
The problem is that leftover_us ends up being exactly 0.5 in this case. Again,
this could be worked around if we really care, but I'm not convinced it's worth
it.

Senthil Kumaran orsent...@gmail.com added the comment: This is fixed in r81636, r81637, r81638, r81637. Just like the Digest Authentication, the urllib2 will try for 5 times before failing for any authentication failure ( It won't lead to recursion). I had a thought that Basic Authentication need not be retried (no where in the RFC it mentions about it), but I found some references that clients do present the dialog a couple of times for retry on wrong authentication, so we are going for the same. This is tested with actual resource setup.

[issue1368247] unicode in email.MIMEText and email/Charset.py
R. David Murray rdmur...@bitdance.com added the comment: I don't think either of the previous patches are correct. I found a note in Issue1685453 that Barry would like for this to work, and after poking around in the code for a bit I think it can be done without breaking anything. Attached is a patch that adds unicode support to MIMEText, including unit tests and docs updates. Note that it is necessary to specify a charset if you have non-ASCII text in your unicode string, since the default charset is us-ascii. The unit tests confirm this behavior. Now the question is, is this a bug-fix or an enhancement? I *think* it is safe to apply and backport, since I think the only behavior it changes is to make unicode input work, whereas before it would give a traceback. But I've been wrong before :( -- resolution: invalid - fixed stage: committed/rejected - patch review versions: +Python 3.2 -Python 3.0 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file17512/mimetext_unicode_input.patch ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue1368247 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue8868] Framework install does not behave as a framework
New submission from Michiel de Hoon mdeh...@users.sourceforge.net: (The discussion for this bug started on the pythonmac-sig mailing list; see http://mail.python.org/pipermail/pythonmac-sig/2010-May/022362.html) When I try to install Python as a framework: ./configure --enable-framework make make install then Python gets installed under /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7, but it doesn't seem to function as a framework: import MacOS MacOS.WMAvailable() False Python 2.6.5 returns True here. This is important for GUI extension modules; such modules do not interact correctly with the window manager if Python is not installed as a framework. I see the same behavior with the current Python in trunk with Mac OS X 10.4 and 10.5 both with Python installed from source and the precompiled python 2.7b2. Python revision 77030 seems to be the last revision without this problem. In revision 77031, posix_spawn() was introduced instead of execv() in pythonw.c to start the Python executable. -- assignee: ronaldoussoren components: Macintosh messages: 106838 nosy: mdehoon, ronaldoussoren priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Framework install does not behave as a framework type: behavior versions: Python 2.7 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue8868 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc amaur...@gmail.com added the comment:
Reproduced on WinXP.
execfile() does not work because it calls the system function stat();
this function does accept UNC paths (like \\machine\share\file), but not paths
which contain a wildcard character ('?' or '*')
I suggest to remove the leading '?\\'.

[issue8591] update mkpkg to latest coding standards
Éric Araujo mer...@netwok.org added the comment:
I’ve started to review your patch but I find it a bid unwieldy to read. Would
you mind exporting changesets to patches? I tried to look at your repo, but
didn’t know which branch to look at.
So, thanks for giving us the occasion of thinking about the patch workflow.
Using changesets seems more natural since we use Bitbucket, while OTOH using
regular diffs can streamline the history and remove unnecessary details (e.g.
I’m not sure we want branch names to clutter the history forever (see
http://stevelosh.com/blog/2009/08/a-guide-to-branching-in-mercurial/ for more
info)). Would it be too much of a hassle to provide links or a Mercurial bundle
of a set of small changesets? Having different patches would help us separate
the non-controversial stuff (whitespace) from the refactoring and improvements.
That said, I can offer a few remarks on the patch.
- Don’t put editor settings in the files.
- Changing “if s in 'yn'” to “if s in ('y', 'n')” is not really an improvement.
It’s not more readable to always use tuples or frozensets for membership
testing; str has __contains__ for a reason :)
- Not sure how your print_ indirection is helpful.
- I don’t know how much reST we want in the docstrings: None, some constructs,
Sphinx extensions?
Don’t worry if there are no replies in a few days, people are pretty busy. I’ll
ask about the meta-issues (workflow, reST) on the ML if Tarek doesn’t answer
here. Cheers :)

New submission from Chris chrit...@gmx.com: i am trying to learn to program in Python from a book on programming that says to use Python 3 i downloaded the Python 3.1.2 Windows x86 MSI installer for my machine aka an HP DV2500 running Win 7 it runs fine, but when i try to write the test program from my book i can't get past the if/else statement aka it gives me a syntax error when i get to the point of an if/else statement aka i program to ask the user to guess the number .. and then i try to create an if/else statement to print a you lose type statement if the input guess is not equal to the number specified by the program. for example i program the game to = 777 and print the you lose type message if the user's guess is not equal to 777, however i use the check module command from the run window in IDLE and it gave me a syntax error when i typed it the way the book said ... I've tried to figure this out myself but have had no success .. so i looked up if statements in the Python tutorials on python.org and tried that format and am still getting a syntax error -- components: IDLE, Windows files: hash.py messages: 106857 nosy: chrits55 priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: if/else stament bug? type: behavior versions: Python 3.1 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file17515/hash.py ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue8872 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue8873] Popen uses 333 times as much CPU as a shell pipe on Mac OS X
New submission from Hugh Secker-Walker hug...@users.sourceforge.net: Popen seems to be *very* costly, CPU wise, on Mac OS X. I need to read and process bytes from the stdout of another process that outputs bytes in a rate-limited fashion, e.g. 8 bytes per second. If I use a shell pipeline and a simple Python script to read the bytes and log some details then top and time both agree that the Python script is using roughly 1 second of CPU time for every 2000 seconds of elapsed time. If I change the script to use Popen to start the first process and to read from proc.stdout, then top and time both agree that the Python script uses roughly 1 second of CPU time for every 6 seconds of elapsed time. That is, using Popen uses 333 times as much CPU as using a shell pipeline. In practice, this means that using a shell pipeline has no measureable impact on system performance, and I can run 300 concurrent pipeline jobs, whereas using Popen limits me to running 6 such concurrent jobs. This is on an up-to-date Mac OS X 10.5.8 system. The behavior happens with both the stock Python 2.5 from Apple and with Python 2.6 from Macports. On Ubuntu Linux the Popen solution is perhaps 2% slower than using a shell pipeline. I'll attach three scripts: bytestream -- simple program that sends bytes to its stdout pull0 -- Python script that reads its stdin and logs a couple of stats pull1 -- Python script that uses Popen to start bytestream and pulls from proc.stdout and runs abysmally slowly. Use this with a concurrent top to see the shell pipeline behavior: $ ./bytestream 8 4 | time ./pull0 11000 Use this with a concurrent top to see the Popen behavior: $ time ./pull1 ./bytestream 8 4 11000 In both cases you'll see that system and user time are approximately equal, but that they're roughly 333 times higher for pull1. Is there a clue in the fact that both times go up by about the same huge factor? -Hugh -- components: Library (Lib) files: bytestream messages: 106862 nosy: hughsw priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Popen uses 333 times as much CPU as a shell pipe on Mac OS X type: behavior versions: Python 2.5, Python 2.6 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file17517/bytestream ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue8873 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue8870] --user-access-control=force produces invalid installer on Vista
anatoly techtonik techto...@gmail.com added the comment: It is local Ext2 partition system accessible through http://www.fs-driver.org/ on the same HDD as primary system partition. But there is definitely issue with difference between drives. There is no problem if the package is executed from the NTFS system drive - permissions asked as expected, no errors. On the Ext2 partition VLC and other installers that require elevated privileges fail. I do not remember any such problems last year, but it just can be that most applications on this drive are not windows specific or do not require elevated privileges. I still doesn't explain why this drive is threatened as network. It would be nice to see how Windows treats other partition types - FAT32 or FAT16. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue8870 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue8870] --user-access-control=force produces invalid installer on Vista
Koen van de Sande k...@tibed.net added the comment: This is listed as a known limitation of the Ext2 FS driver. From http://www.fs-driver.org/relnotes.html : === Running programs on an Ext2/Ext3 volume on Windows Vista Currently it is not possible to start a program on Vista if UAC is enabled and the program's executable is stored on an Ex2/Ext3 volume. An invalid parameter message box appears, but the program does not start. UAC is the feature of Vista that prompts the user to elevate the user privileges to administrator level when necessary. UAC is enabled by default. It is not recommended to disable it. The problem is caused by Vista's internals: There is some code that compares whether the name of the file system type is one of the following: NTFS, FAT, FAT32, CDFS, NPFS, MSFS or UDF. If there is a match, it is one of Microsoft's file system types and a lot of code is skipped in the Multiple UNC Provider (MUP) implementation of Vista. If the file system type is a third-party type, for example Ext2, some code runs in the MUP of Vista that always generates an ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER error status code due to a bug of Vista. === So the bug is in that FS (or in Windows if you will). It is not something Python can fix. -- nosy: +koen ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue8870 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
