Category: Extension Modules Group: Python 2.3 Status: Closed Resolution: None Priority: 7 Submitted By: Matthias Klose (doko) Assigned to: Neal Norwitz (nnorwitz) Summary: posixmodule uses utimes, which is broken in glibc-2.3.2 Initial Comment: Maybe this is category 'Build' ... at least it results in '1970/01/01-01:00:01' timestamps on all files copied by distutils on glibc-2.3.2 based systems (2.3.1 seems to be ok). Disabling the detection of the utimes function in configure works around this. As this function is a wrapper around utime, why not use this one directly? Or check, if utimes correctly works. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Neal Norwitz (nnorwitz) Date: 2006-01-25 00:41 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=33168 Thanks for the comment. I don't think we will try to cater to this bug in glibc. BTW, are you still working on Debian a lot? Are there many outstanding bugs wrt python? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Matthias Klose (doko) Date: 2006-01-25 00:36 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=60903 It is not necessary for glibc-2.3.5 and more recent versions, older glibc versions still have the problem. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Neal Norwitz (nnorwitz) Date: 2006-01-24 22:26 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=33168 Closing due to inactivity. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Neal Norwitz (nnorwitz) Date: 2005-10-01 22:54 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=33168 Matthias, can this be closed? Is this still relevant? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Matthias Klose (doko) Date: 2003-08-10 03:54 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=60903 for an utimes check see http://lists.debian.org/debian-glibc/2003/debian-glibc-200308/msg00115.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=786194&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
