Hi,
When testing 1.15.0-rc3, I stumbled on check-ctypes-python. That currently
fails miserably:
[[[
python: can't open file '/home/dsg/ramdisk/svn_trunk2/none': [Errno 2] No
such file or directory
sed: can't read subversion/bindings/ctypes-python/svn_all.py: No such file
or directory
cd
/home/dsg/ramdisk_backstorage/svn_trunk2/subversion/bindings/ctypes-python;
\
/bin/bash "/home/dsg/ramdisk_backstorage/svn_trunk2/libtool" --tag=CC
--silent --mode=execute `for f in
/home/dsg/ramdisk_backstorage/svn_trunk2/subversion/*/*.la; do echo -dlopen
$f; done` python test/run_all.py
Traceback (most recent call last):

I've started fixing errors one by one and I have a 444 line diff, but I'm
no closer to making it work.
Given that last substantial commit was somewhere around 2011, this is
probably yet another feature we are not maintaining as well as we should. I
believe a lot of things have not been updated from Py2 to Py3 standards but
it seems to be other stuff as well.
Is there any advantage having a ctypes-binding over the swig-binding?
Otherwise, I think we should axe this one as well - in this particular case
(since it currently doesn't work) - I'm on the SIGKILL squad.
Cheers,
Daniel
