test_grp regression test fails with NIS entries present
by Bobby Impollonia Oct. 31, 2010

Oct. 31, 2010

The regression tests for py3k (or, I think, any branch) fail on one of my machines because test_grp chokes if /etc/group contains a "+" line, which is a directive to pull information from NIS. The test enumerates all entries in /etc/group using grp.getgrall() and verifies that it can look up each entry by name using grp.getgrnam(). The current behavior of grp.getgrall() is to return entries whose names start with plus or minus signs (NIS-related lines) as if they were regular entries. The … [View More]

Regular scheduled releases (was: Continuing 2.x)

This is probably more a question for Benjamin but doing sonmight provide better predictability and "customer service" to our users. I might like to see monthly releases but even quarterly would probably be useful. Doing timed releases might also incentivize folks to fix more outstanding 2.7 bugs. I would really like … [View More]

closing files and sockets in a timely manner in the stdlib
by Brett Cannon Oct. 30, 2010

Oct. 30, 2010

For those of you who have not noticed, Antoine committed a patch that raises a ResourceWarning under a pydebug build if a file or socket is closed through garbage collection instead of being explicitly closed. I have started to go through the test suite to fix as many of these cases as possible, but it's time for me to stop. For those of you interested in helping out, at the end of this email is a list of tests which have some ResourceWarning raised. Some of them are probably listed here … [View More]
