Possible major bug with zipimport on Windows in Python 3.3.4
Can someone please take a look at http://bugs.python.org/issue20621 for me? It appears that there is a significant problem with zipimport in 3.3.4. It's causing breakage in virtualenv but I've isolated the issue to what I think is Python itself. Basically, until this bug is fixed, virtualenv won't work on Windows with Python 3.3.4, as far as I can tell. Thanks, Paul

OK, this appears to be a serious regression that breaks virtualenv. Steve Dower suggested a workaround on the tracker, but I don't think that can be made to work in the case of virtualenv (for reasons not worth explaining now, ask me if you want the details though). Given where we are, what is the way forward here? I'm not entirely sure what I should be saying to the user who reported the bug in virtualenv. I think I'll recommend downgrading to 3.3.3 for now, but it would be good to be able to give an idea of what the longer term solution is likely to be. Thanks Paul

Then could you please include the fix for #20538 (this bug allows easily crash Python e.g. by special HTTP request or e-mail). And I think it is very important to port the fix for #19619. Simple patch for #17671 fixes other crash (less important, because can be triggered only by programming error).

Exactly. If these are all committed by the rc (only #19619 is missing AFAICT), they will go in. The 3.3.5 rc will be released next weekend, Feb 22th, and the final (if nothing else comes up) on Mar 1st. cheers, Georg
