Package: idle Version: 2.5.2-3 Followup-For: Bug #482156
I just wanted to add (since the earlier bug report doesn't mention this) that the "idle -n" in the desktop file causes idle to crash very easily when run from the menu---especially when used with python-visual, which crashes routinely. To reproduce this, you need only: Open idle using the menu (or with idle -n), then at the interactive prompt type: import visual visual.sphere() and then close the resulting window. The entire editor crashes. The same sequence when idle is opened without the -n flag simply causes idle to state >>> ================================ RESTART ================================ Thanks! -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.3 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages idle depends on: ii python 2.5.2-3 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-tk 2.5.2-1 Tkinter - Writing Tk applications idle recommends no packages. idle suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
