New submission from Adam Bartoš: There is a check in Lib/getpass.py:win_getpass that causes a fallback version to be used when `sys.stdin` is changed. I change `sys.stdin` in my `win_unicode_console` package, and in this situation there is no reason to use the fallback version (see https://github.com/Drekin/win-unicode-console/issues/24).
It seems the check was added because of some issue with IDLE (https://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/6d5ac3c43416). Could this check be changed so it satisfies all the needs? ---------- components: Library (Lib), Windows messages: 256180 nosy: Drekin, paul.moore, steve.dower, tim.golden, zach.ware priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: getpass falls back when sys.stdin is changed type: behavior versions: Python 3.5, Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25834> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
