Public bug reported: There is invalid behavior of builtin curses module in amd64 version python3.2.
>From API spec, `refresh()` method of a window object returned by `curses.newpad(h,w)` should accept 6 arguments; `pad.refresh(pt, pl, st, sl, sb, sr)`. - http://docs.python.org/py3k/library/curses.html#curses.newpad But python3.2 package in amd64 ubuntu precise does not accept arguments. [bug occured snippet: newpad-refresh.py] ########################################## import curses try: screen = curses.initscr() curses.cbreak() pad = curses.newpad(10, 10) pad.addstr(0, 0, "press q") size = screen.getmaxyx() pad.refresh(0, 0, 0, 0, size[0] - 1, size[1] - 1) while True: ch = pad.getch() if ch == ord("q"): break pass pass finally: curses.nocbreak() curses.endwin() pass ########################################### [execution result] ########################################### $ python3 newpad-refresh.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "newpad-refresh.py", line 10, in <module> pad.refresh(0, 0, 0, 0, size[0] - 1, size[1] - 1) TypeError: refresh() takes exactly 0 arguments (6 given) ########################################### The code is worked well on python2.7 pakcage and self compiled python3.2.3. There may be a package build problem at python3.2 or ncurses.
