New submission from Stefan Scherfke: Hi all,
I am trying to build a custom Conda installer for Python 3.6.0b4. I could successfully build an run Python. However, when I run the generated Conda installer, it dies with a "Bus error". It happens when Conda's meta-installer script tries to replace the build-prefix (e.g., /home/stefan/conda/asdf) with the prefix of the actual installation (e.g., /tmp/py36). Therefore, it opens all files in binary mode, reads their contents, replaces stuff, and writes the new contents back to the original file. This works fine with text files but it dies when it hits the first binary file. Here is a minimal example that reproduces the error: $ /tmp/py36/bin/python Python 3.6.0b4 (default, Nov 22 2016, 10:32:29) [GCC 6.2.1 20160916 (Red Hat 6.2.1-2)] on linux >>> >>> path = '/tmp/py36/lib/libpython3.6m.so.1.0' >>> f = open(path, 'wb') BusError Can anyone reproduce this? Is this a compilation error or an issue with Python itself? It works without issues with Python 3.5. Cheers, Stefan PS: If need, I can upload the Conda installer somewhere. It's ~40MiB. ---------- messages: 281475 nosy: Stefan Scherfke priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Bus error in Python 3.6.0beta type: crash versions: Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue28772> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
