Martin Panter added the comment: I just discovered Issue 20220 about a similar story with a tarfile test case. It looks like this is caused by the same underlying C library quirk, so I am closing this as a duplicate. Using Antoine’s reproducer there I triggered both this datetime failure and the tarfile failure:
TZ='America/New_York' ./python -m test -v test_imaplib test_tarfile test_datetime Also Serhiy I discovered Issue 6478 about the strptime() cache which has patches trying to do a similar thing to your patch. ---------- resolution: -> duplicate status: open -> closed superseder: -> test_datetime, test_tarfile, test_strptime time zone failures _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25168> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
