Well, the question then becomes whether Popen() shouldn't use the user's default shell instead? :) It probably doesn't make much of a difference in most cases, though. Also, there's the problem that some special users may have a void shell entry (or /bin/false or /sbin/nologin), to prevent a human from logging in as them. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16353> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
