Jason Vas Dias <jason.vas.d...@gmail.com> added the comment: OK, the test failures reported for this bug now succeed with Python-3.3 from latest HG head . But Python-3.3 now has its own new test failures :
[149/354] test_import test test_import failed -- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/src/cpython/Lib/test/test_import.py", line 545, in test_unwritable_directory '__pycache__', '{}.{}.pyc'.format(TESTFN, self.tag)))) AssertionError: True is not false Hmm, don't want a python that can't do 'import' . So my choices are, in order to get a working modern python release : o fix the broken dynamic loader in Python-2.7 o fix the broken import mechanism in Python-3.3 Thanks ! BTW, this error occurs because I don't have RPM : [ 93/354] test_distutils error: error creating temporary file ${prefix}/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.amzIxR: No such file or directory error: Unable to open temp file. error: error creating temporary file ${prefix}/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.nwKS2z: No such file or directory error: Unable to open temp file. test test_distutils failed -- multiple errors occurred; run in verbose mode for details this is because I don't have RPM (or maybe an old broken RPM inst) - I suggest this test should test for the existence and usability of rpm before using rpm - and should skip itself if rpm not usable. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11946> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
