Category: Python Library Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: nomind (vnainar) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: curses library in python 2.4.3 broken Initial Comment: My python programs using curses library do not work with version 2.4.3.Even the 'ncurses.py ' demo program in the Demo/curses directory does not work correctly. The problem seems to be in the 'panels' library ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jan Palus (atler_) Date: 2006-04-09 12:06 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1497957 I confirm the problem. Every program using curses library segfaults and there's only one error before it happens: ... import curses # directory /usr/share/python2.4/curses import curses # precompiled from /usr/share/python2.4/curses/__init__.pyc dlopen("/usr/lib/python2.4/lib-dynload/_curses.so", 2); import _curses # dynamically loaded from /usr/lib/python2.4/lib-dynload/_curses.so import curses.wrapper # precompiled from /usr/share/python2.4/curses/wrapper.pyc import curses.panel # precompiled from /usr/share/python2.4/curses/panel.pyc dlopen("/usr/lib/python2.4/lib-dynload/_curses_panel.so", 2); import _curses_panel # dynamically loaded from /usr/lib/python2.4/lib-dynload/_curses_panel.so Traceback (most recent call last): File "ncurses.py", line 273, in ? curses.wrapper(demo_panels) File "/usr/share/python2.4/curses/wrapper.py", line 49, in wrapper _curses.error: nocbreak() returned ERR I'm running Linux (PLD) with Python 2.4.3 and ncurses 5.5. With Python 2.4.2 everything worked fine. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: nomind (vnainar) Date: 2006-04-06 07:38 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1493752 Sorry my original post was incomplete. I am running slackware 10.2 (linux kernel 2.6).The python library was tested with ncurses 5.4 and ncurses 5.5( the latest release). All programs run OK with 2.4.1.As I said ,the curses demo that comes with the Python distributions runs OK with 2.4.1 but not with 2.4.3 - I have both on my machine ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Martin v.

What operating system and what curses implementation are you using? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1464056&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
