Hi, I'm experiencing problems when translating pypy from a fresh checkout (when testing the compilation of Debian packages) The translation crashes very early in the process: Loading grammar /home/alf/dev/pypy/dist/pypy/interpreter/pyparser/data/Grammar2.4 ******************** -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ "global name 'HMASK' is not defined" Happened at file /home/alf/dev/pypy/dist/pypy/lib/_classobj.py line 21 v += HMASK This comes from

/home/alf/dev/pypy/dist/pypy/objspace/flow/objspace.py(264)build_flow() -> raise FlowingError(format_global_error(ec.graph, ec.crnt_offset, str(a)))

This used to work last tuesday, but with a checkout from yesterday, the bug occurs. I was puzzled at first because I could only see this during the translation for Debian packages, and not in my usual working checkout which I update on a regular basis. After blaming the Debian package building environment and not finding anything, it turns out that my working checkout has a pypy/_cache directory, which is used. If I rename this directory, translating will fail there too. Can other people confirm the problem ? If I'm correct it should affect the build tool too, since it builds in a fresh checkout. -- Alexandre Fayolle LOGILAB, Paris (France) Formations Python, Zope, Plone, Debian: http://www.logilab.fr/formations Développement logiciel sur mesure: http://www.logilab.fr/services Informatique scientifique: http://www.logilab.fr/science Reprise et maintenance de sites CPS: http://www.migration-cms.com/
