Marc-Andre Lemburg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: Using subprocess is only possible conditionally, ie. if available. Please note that the module is intended to be usable with multiple Python versions and must at least support Python 2.1.
We could consider an updated patch for 2.7 and 3.1, but not for 2.6/3.0, since it needs more testing. I think for 2.6/3.0, adding the extra quotes is enough to get things working. Please open a new patch ticket for your patch and update it to work with popen if subprocess is not available. The patch should also not remove the lines: - if sys.platform in ('dos','win32','win16','os2'): - # XXX Others too ? - return default from _syscmd_file(). I'll checkin the extra quotes. _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3719> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
