[Python-Dev] Python 3.5.1 plans

2015-11-01 Thread Chris Angelico
PEP 478 [1] doesn't currently have any info on a planned 3.5.1 release
(and actually, it has 3.5.0 Final listed as a future release). About
when is it likely to happen? The one thing I'm hanging out for is an
installer patch on Windows that detects XP and immediately aborts with
a convenient error; if the number of emails to python-list is
indicative, there are a lot of people out there getting confused.

That doesn't need a new version of Python, just a new installer.

True, it doesn't, but it needs that installer to have as much checking
as a new point release will get. My understanding was that it was
going to be done as part of 3.5.1.

Re: [Python-Dev] Python 3.5.1 plans

2015-11-01 Thread Steve Dower
The installer and the contained contents are currently tied together, making it 
fairly difficult to mix and match versions.

When 3.5.1 happens is up to Larry, but I'm feeling like the initial rush of bug 
reports has died down and we should be considering the remaining open ones in 
the context of blocking that release. (The XP notification, as well as the more 
confusing Vista and Win7 w/o service packs notifications, have been added 
already. Python-list will probably keep asking though, just in case it can get 
something for free...)

Cheers,
Steve

Webmaster here.
The initial rush of bug reports I see has not gone down.  It's been in
steady increase.  This is not a data-blip due to last weekend's whole
outage of mail.python.org.

Getting the 'XP -- you are out of luck' message 

and the api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0-dll is Microsofts Universal 
CRT.  You don't have one.  You need to install it. Get it here:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48234

message out of a failed install -- as soon as possible -- would
have a serious positive impact around here.

Most of the replies I make are of that sort.  I have 2 templates to
make it quick to do, but still, be nice if I could save my time for 
others.  And I don't report the number of people I talk to with this
problem to the bug tracker.  This could possibly have mislead you.

It is not like the:
The 3.5 Windows installer fails with "The TARGETDIR variable must be provided 
when invoking this installer" bug
https://bugs.python.org/issue25144

where I report when I hear about them if I think there is a good chance
that having me report it will cause the person who submitted the bug
to me to go track it -- because maybe asking him or her to give you
more information about their system will help you resolve it.

For the first 2 sorts, well, I won't spam you with the knowledge
that windows xp users are complaining to webmaster a whole lot about
3.5 not working.  

But from my end -- sooner python.org serves up the improved installer,
the better.

Even if you made a release-candidate-right-now to do nothing but that.

"The initial rush of bug reports I see has not gone down.  It's been in steady 
increase."

To clarify, I meant unique bugs. When my job is to fix them, more reports of 
the same bug are not important to me, especially once they've been fixed but 
not released.

I do understand that someone has to deal with every report, new or not (for my 
work project, that's me), and you are appreciated for it especially since it's 
not your role. You should probably just have one template redirecting people to 
python-list though.

sending them to python-list is not a good idea.
people get bored at the same old bugs and by now
bored python-listers will reply something sarcastic
at people with the same old bugs.

Especialy if they post there not saying what windows version
they have.

There is only so much --'be kinder, it may be the 35th time for us,
it is still that person's first bug report with the same old same old'
I can do.

The chief reason I am subscribed to python-list is so that newbies
are not greeted with such sarcasm alone.

A better experience from the download page should not wait for
Larry's other concerns.  If the new one is ready to go, and tells
XP users to get a new OS and universal-crt missers to go get one here


Put that on python.org as soon as possible.
even if you need to bump the python 3.5 numbering.
you get 3.5.1 for this, and this alone and everybody else gets to
wait for 3.5.2 and when Larry feels this is a good idea.

Well, let me say this.  I haven't been added to any apocalyptic 3.5 bugs 
recently.  If Steve says he's not seeing novel bugs, and Laura says 
she's seeing a steady trickle of people reporting the same bugs that 
have already been fixed, then it seems like a good time to cut 3.5.1.


3.5 does have a single issue on the tracker marked as a "release blocker":

   smtplib.py AUTH LOGIN code messed up sending login and password data
   since 3.5

   http://bugs.python.org/issue25446

R. David Murray set it to "release blocker", and I trust his judgment, 
so 3.5.1 can't go out until this is fixed.  I'll engage with him on the 
issue to see about when we can get a fix.


If I didn't have any release blockers, I'd schedule 3.5.1 for sometime 
around three weeks from now.  And FYI I want to release 3.4.4 about two 
weeks after that.

Strictly speaking, this isn't completely true.  Most (all?) C/C++
compilers do some level of optimization when they are "disabled".
GCC/Clang, for example, both will do some form of constant folding
with -O0.  The compilers are just *much* less aggressive with the
primary goal of making the debugging experience much more enjoyable.

The situation here sounds similar -- we want an option to provide a
better debugging and tracing experience, which seems like a very
reasonable idea to me.
