On the newly-released macOS Sierra 10.12.5, the default web browser which is
meant to returned by webbrowser.get() gives an error. Specifically:

>>> br = webbrowser.get()
>>> br.open("http://python.org";)
0:33: execution error: "http://python.org"; doesn’t understand the “open
location” message. (-1708)
False
>>> ### but this works
>>> br = webbrowser.get("safari")
>>> br.open("http://python.org";)
True

Andrew Jaffe added the comment: A few more details: - I believe this worked correctly under previous macOS versions (but I don't currently have access to any such machines). - This behaviour is identical under 3.6.1 and 2.7.13 (untested elsewhere) - Behaviour first noticed under Jupyter notebook -- see https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/issues/2438 -- ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue30392> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Andrew Jaffe added the comment: The same behaviour also happens under Apple's system Python 2.7.10. Perhaps this implies a macOS bug or deliberate behaviour change?

Andrew Jaffe added the comment: This seems to be a bug in the `osascript` application in the latest macOS 10.12.5: $ osascript < open location "http://python.org"; > EOF 0:33: execution error: "http://python.org"; doesn’t understand the “open location” message.

Andrew Jaffe added the comment: Yes, it's a weird bug. see http://www.andrewjaffe.net/blog/2017/05/python-bug-hunt.html for more of the story so far. I have already filed a radar, and I hope this will get fixed at Apple, but it's a bug we need to live with for a while one way or the other. (For what it's worth, among other things the current implementation relies on the officially deprecated os.popen() which has nothing to do with this problem but I guess this could be taken as an opportunity to change...) -- ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue30392> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Andrew Jaffe added the comment: I'll also note that my bug report (radar) has been marked as "DUPLICATE OF 31898264 (OPEN)". So Apple is aware of the bug, and possibly not completely ignoring it. However, the opacity of the system is such that there is no way to get any further information (even though we know the bug number). -- ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue30392> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue3588] sysconfig variable LINKFORSHARED has wrong value for MacOS X framework build
