The bug report comes from FreeBSD, https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=197376 They use os.system(), at least in the bug report. The random file descriptor is a little suprising because it's not obvious than os.urandom() opens a file, nor that the file remains open. It's also a change in a minor Python version. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23458> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
