Adi, since you have access to an HP-UX box, could you test the attached patch
(chown_hpux.diff)?
Also, if you're interested, you could search for other isues HP-UX-specific to
see if you can help.

Hi,
Not sure what codebase was used for the patch.
I have manually patched the test on 2.5.6 and the test_posix tests passed.
Thanks!

I am not sure how the search works, but for example I was not able to reach
http://bugs.python.org/issue5895 while searching for hpux or hp-ux using the
internal search.
Also I was not able to find any aix or solaris bug.
In case you bump over an

Search is currently not returning all matching issues, unfortunately. You
might get a few more hits by searching for hpux in the title field via advanced
search.

Oooh, I'm confused. I removed this stupid patch.
chown_hpux-3.diff has a problem too: it skips the successful chown call (that's
why I put the SkipTest at the end).

It's surprising to raise a SkipTest *at the end* of the test. Here is another
patch.

Victor, I don't understand your patch: if we try chown()ing a file to root,
then this will fail on HP-UX (because chown won't fail with EPERM). That's the
whole point of the

# HP-UX and Solaris allow a non-root user to chown to root
I didn't see failure on our Solaris / OpenIndiana buildbot. Should we really
skip the test on Solaris?

Charles-François Natali neolo...@free.fr added the comment:
Well, IIRC, I read in the Solaris man pages that it behaves like HP-UX
in this regard. But this it can be changed with `setprivgrp`, so it
might work on some machines, and fail on others.

That explains what the test fails then. The test expects that you can't
chown a file to root as a normal user, and it verifies that an exception
is raised in that case.
Do you know if this behaviour is standard under HP-UX? If so, what do
Andreas Kupries andre...@activestate.com added the comment:
I do not know if this is standard for hpux or not.
I can say that right now we have six different HPUX machines which
behave in this manner, i.e. do not throw an error for the 'chown root
foobar' command for an ordinary (non-root)

Ok, and when you try to chown back to yourself the root-owned foobar,
does it fail?

If you try chown root foobar, with foobar being a valid file you

New submission from Andreas Kupries andre...@activestate.com:
The 'test_posix' of Python's 2.5.4.3 testsuite fails on HPUX. This has
happened on parisc and ia64 systems. On the parisc system failure occurs
for both parisc1.1 and parisc2.0w builds. The HPUX versions are 11.00
(parisc) and 11.22
