There is still no rush as guarding the ctypes import on Windows builds that can run IDLE may never be needed. But I grepped the stdlib .py code and uuid is the only .py module that imports ctypes, and all are directly or indirectly guarded in the code or test_uuid. So I moved the import inside the existing try block and added ImportError to those caught. ---------- stage: patch review -> resolved _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33656> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
