Re: [Python-Dev] new bug tracker broken?
by Neal Norwitz Aug. 25, 2007

Aug. 25, 2007

It looks like you found the meta tracker rather than the python one. To reset your password for the main python tracker: http://bugs.python.org/user?@template=forgotten To report bugs, go here: http://bugs.python.org/ To register a new account, go here: http://bugs.python.org/user?@template=register Note, I'm not sure if you have an account, you might need to register. To report problems about the bug tracker (ie, not python problems), go here: http://psf.upfronthosting.co.za/… [View More]

New bug tracker is active now
by Martin von Löwis Aug. 25, 2007

Aug. 25, 2007

We have completed the conversion to Roundup as the bug tracker for Python; the new tracker is now life at http://bugs.python.org/ It has all reports from the SourceForge tracker, along with all messages and files that had been attached. To edit bug reports, you still need to log in. We have migrated all account names from SF as-is, but obviously couldn't migrate the passwords as well. So you need to reset your password, through http://bugs.python.org/user?@template=forgotten Fill your … [View More]

new bug tracker broken?
by Bill Janssen Aug. 25, 2007

Aug. 25, 2007

I've been trying to reset my password on the new RoundUp tracker, and it isn't working. Then I tried to register for a new account, and I got mail from metatracker(a)psf.upfronthosting.co.za to confirm. When I did, I got access to a small 27-issue tracker, which seems to be the bug-tracker for the bug-tracker. Still can't get into the Python bug-tracker. Bill

uuid creation not thread-safe?
by Guido van Rossum Aug. 24, 2007

Aug. 24, 2007

I discovered what appears to be a thread-unsafety in uuid.py. This is in the trunk as well as in 3.x; I'm using the trunk here for easy reference. There's some code around like 395: import ctypes, ctypes.util _buffer = ctypes.create_string_buffer(16) This creates a *global* buffer which is used as the output parameter to later calls to _uuid_generate_random() and _uuid_generate_time(). For example, around line 481, in uuid1(): _uuid_generate_time(_buffer) return UUID(… [View More]

PEP 302 optional extensions only for loaders?
by Brett Cannon Aug. 23, 2007

Aug. 23, 2007

When you read PEP 302 and the section on the optional extensions, it mentions that they "are highly recommended for general purpose importers". But then the PEP says very shortly thereafter that "loader objects" are to have the extensions. So which is it, importers or loaders? The reason I ask is because if one can assume that the extensions are only called on what find_module returns, and thus extensions are only called on loaders, then some caching can be done based on what find_module had … [View More]
