New submission from Ben Hayden <hayden...@gmail.com>: When running the test suite on Linux 3.2.9-1, I get the following error on the test_os suite:
test test_os crashed -- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/benhayden/Documents/cpython/Lib/test/regrtest.py", line 1229, in runtest_inner the_package = __import__(abstest, globals(), locals(), []) File "/home/benhayden/Documents/cpython/Lib/test/test_os.py", line 1767, in <module> @unittest.skipUnless(supports_extended_attributes(), File "/home/benhayden/Documents/cpython/Lib/test/test_os.py", line 1754, in supports_extended_attributes os.fsetxattr(fp.fileno(), b"user.test", b"") OSError: [Errno 61] No data available I don't know the best way to handle this error, but instead of raising it, I just let the decorator return False. This allowed test_os to finish (and finish successfully) on my machine. Once again, I don't really know what ENODATA might mean, so I just tried the first thing that worked for me. ---------- components: Tests files: test_os_support_ext.patch keywords: patch messages: 156232 nosy: beardedp priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: test_os failing with errno 61: No Data Available type: crash versions: Python 3.3, Python 3.4 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file24921/test_os_support_ext.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14358> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
