[Python-Dev] [RELEASE] Python 2.7.6

2013-11-10 Thread Benjamin Peterson
Python 2.7.6 is now available.

This release resolves crashes of the interactive interpreter on OS X 10.9. The
final release also fixes several issues identified in the release
candidate. Importantly, a security bug in CGIHTTPServer was fixed [1]. Thank you
to those who tested the 2.7.6 release candidate and reported these bugs!

All the changes in Python 2.7.6 are described in full detail in the Misc/NEWS
file of the source tarball. You can also view online at

http://hg.python.org/cpython/raw-file/99d03261c1ba/Misc/NEWS

Downloads are at

http://python.org/download/releases/2.7.6/

As always, report bugs to

http://bugs.python.org/

Have a nice November,
Benjamin Peterson
2.7 Release Manager

I presume line 4 should be 'MSI program database'.
(3.x pages do not have this.)

Line 5 could add "(included in MSI installers)" for those who do not 
know. Some programs, like Open/Libre Office, require a separate download 
and install for Windows help. (This comment applies to 3.x also.)

- Issue #18747: Re-seed OpenSSL's pseudo-random number generator after fork.
  A pthread_atfork() parent handler is used to seed the PRNG with pid, time
  and some stack data.

Is this changeset in Python 2.7.6 or not?

It was backed out, but evidently the news entry wasn't removed.

Re: [Python-Dev] [Python-checkins] cpython: #1097797: Add CP273 codec, and exercise it in the test suite

Thanks for noting this.  This file is programmatically generated by
the scripts in Tools/unicode/ .  Many of the files in this directory
also have similar PEP8 violations:

grep -r 'def encode' Lib/encodings/ |grep ',inpu' |less
...
Lib/encodings//koi8_r.py:def encode(self,input,errors='strict'):
Lib/encodings//koi8_u.py:def encode(self,input,errors='strict'):
Lib/encodings//mac_arabic.py:def encode(self,input,errors='strict'):
Lib/encodings//mac_centeuro.py:def encode(self,input,errors='strict'):

So I'll take a look at fixing the code generator to generate properly
formatted code, but it probably isn't worth modifying all of the
existing files in Lib/encodings.
