Martin Panter added the comment: I presume the problem is that Free BSD’s “type” command outputs the error to the shell’s original stderr, rather than the one given on the “type” command line. If so, the Python 3 patches for Issue 22636 should avoid it by using shutil.which() instead.
However that function does not exist in Python 2, so a different solution needs to be found. Probably an improved version of Eric’s patch would be good. ---------- dependencies: +avoid using a shell in ctypes.util: replace os.popen with subprocess stage: patch review -> needs patch versions: +Python 2.7 -Python 2.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6338> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
