New submission from Pascal Chambon <chambon.pas...@gmail.com>: It seems that the "flock" wrapped by the fcntl module is the one descriebd in "flock(2)", not "flock(3)" (just in case this might confuse people...)
Quote : """ fcntl.flock(fd, op) Perform the lock operation op on file descriptor fd (file objects providing a fileno() method are accepted as well). See the Unix manual flock(3) for details. (On some systems, this function is emulated using fcntl.)
