Floris Bruynooghe <floris.bruynoo...@gmail.com> added the comment: I'm aware of that but my limited testing showed that in this case that doesn't happen.
However if this is considered too brittle to just plain fail as soon as there's stderr, how about using distutils' log facility to log the stderr at a reasonable level (warning?)? That way at least you'll be able to see something useful when you get a failure at a strange looking and far less meaningful traceback a few lines lower. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9912> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
