Hi Ariel, The short answer is that this is correct behaviour. The long answer is that in order to determine if an error or failure in Stackless is actually an error or failure IN Stackless, you need to do the same operations with standard Python. If the problems observed, happen both in standard Python and in Stackless Python, then Stackless is working fine and standard Python is not. I do not recall if I ran the unit tests when I checked in the last merge from standard Python, but I believe I would have. However, I just ran the unit tests against a fresh export of both standard and Stackless Python, and they both exhibited the same failure in distutils for me. We need to document this somewhere. Cheers, Richard. _______________________________________________ Stackless mailing list [email protected] http://www.stackless.com/mailman/listinfo/stackless
