Nick Coghlan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: Agreed - Jesse, can you work up a patch that generates a clean import error when _multiprocessing.SemLock can't be defined (due to HAVE_SEM_OPEN=0 or a single-threaded build), adds test_multiprocessing to the expected skips for FreeBSD and OpenBSD, and updates the multiprocessing docs to note the restriction to systems with a working sem_open() implementation?
Improving the *BSD and single-threaded build compatibility of the multiprocessing package will just have to be high on the to-do list for 2.6.1. This may also be worth mentioning in the release notes - Barry's call on that one. _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3770> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
