[issue6040] bdist_msi does not deal with pre-release version

[Roger Binns]

Roger Binns  added the comment:

This issue is highly annoying.  The ultimate cause is the msi code using
the StrictVersion class to get the version number.  StrictVersion is
documented to be constrained to numerical dot separated versions, and
there doesn't appear to be a way of providing that.  My extension has a
human readable version and I'm happy to also provide a different mangled
version to keep this command working.  I suspect the strictversion
doesn't actually matter than much and is only used to identify an
identical version of the installer so there is no reason why it can't be
automatically derived from the human readable version.

[issue2733] mmap resize fails on anonymous memory

[Hirokazu Yamamoto]

Hirokazu Yamamoto  added the comment:

I still think we should forbid to resize anonymous memory map because
this operation is really problematic. I think original poster's purpose
can be fulfilled with creation of another mmap object with same tagname.

Here is a patch for it.

[issue6333] logging: ValueError: I/O operation on closed file

[Vinay Sajip]

Vinay Sajip  added the comment:

Can you submit a short script which demonstrates the bug? Your fix is
unfortunately not suitable to use as-is, since the StreamHandler
operates on file-like objects, and these are not guaranteed to have the
"closed" attribute.

[issue1523] xdrlib fails to detect overflow (struct bug?)

[Mark Dickinson]

Mark Dickinson  added the comment:

I think there's nothing we can do about this in 2.6: there's probably code 
out there that depends on the overflow behaviour.

However, 2.6 should have been issuing DeprecationWarnings for overflow 
handling, so it would be safe to remove the overflow wrapping for 2.7.

[issue6343] TimedRotatingFileHandler permission denied rename failure on Windows

[Vinay Sajip]

Vinay Sajip  added the comment:

I'm running your test script (WinXP, Python 2.5) and am unable to
reproduce the error, after running the script for a couple of hours.

Is it possible that you have e.g. anti-virus software or backup software
or some other application (e.g. a service) running in the background
which could temporarily be locking the log files? If the failure happens
repeatably on your system, try running filemon (Microsoft sysinternals)
to see system-wide file activity which could be causing the problem.

[issue6377] distutils compiler switch ignored

[Tarek Ziadé]

Tarek Ziadé  added the comment:

Here's the patch. There's no simple way to deprecate the usage of
"compiler" as an attribute, so I have just fixed Python setup.py.
Using it as an attribute is just wrong.

I have put Benjamin in the loop and I'll wait for his greenlight to
commit this change.

[issue6377] distutils compiler switch ignored

[Tarek Ziadé]

Tarek Ziadé  added the comment:

Right, turning compiler into a property and adding a warning on the set
would be good enough I guess. Then turn it back into a simple string for
python 3.3 and ... 2.8 :)

I'll add that

[issue6422] timeit called from within Python should allow autoranging

[Scott David Daniels]

New submission from Scott David Daniels :

timeit.main has a _very_ handy autoranging facility to pick an
appropriate number of repetitions when not specified.  The autoranging
code should be lifted to a method on Timer instances (so non-main code
can use it).  If number is specified as 0 or None, I would like to use
the results of that autoranging code in Timer.repeat and Timer.timeit.

Patch to follow.

[issue3410] platform.version() don't work as expected in Vista in portuguese

[Ezio Melotti]

Ezio Melotti  added the comment:

Here are the results.
Windows Vista SP2 in English
  Python 3.0.1:
  >>> platform.platform()
  'Windows-Vista-6.0.6002-SP2'
  >>> platform.version()
  '6.0.6002'
  >>> platform.win32_ver()
  ('Vista', '6.0.6002', 'SP2', 'Multiprocessor Free')

  Python 2.6.2:
  >>> platform.platform()
  'Windows-Vista-6.0.6002-SP2'
  >>> platform.version()
  '6.0.6002'
  >>> platform.win32_ver()
  ('Vista', '6.0.6002', 'SP2', u'Multiprocessor Free')

Windows 2003 Server SP2 in English
  Python 3.1
  >>> platform.platform()
  'Windows-2003Server-5.2.3790-SP2'
  >>> platform.version()
  '5.2.3790'
  >>> platform.win32_ver()
  ('2003Server', '5.2.3790', 'SP2', 'Uniprocessor Free')

Everything seems fine, however I don't have any non-English Windows
here. Do you know if it's possible to download and install language
packs and if they may affect the text in the version? If so, I could try
to do it and see if I can reproduce the original issue.
