You're right, 2.7’s errnos are incomplete compared to 3.2. Antoine added ENOTSUP in c370866f30a7 and it runs as “Solaris-specific”. So it’s currently in 3.2 and later. Shouldn’t hurt to back port it? EOPNOTSUP is obviously wrong in your case and it doesn’t really sound right at all by the description. However, maybe on some other architecture (FreeBSD?) it’s the way to go? The commit (2e0d58adadbe) states it’s because of ZFS on OS X. As the code is unchanged in 3.2+, this bug also applies to them. Suggestion: For 3.2+3.3: I’d extend the catch to also catch ENOTSUP For 2.7: I’d also backport the err code. NB I’m fine if Fabian wants to do it himself, it’s his issue. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14662> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
