[IPython-dev] zmq/pyzmq Version Incompatibilities

[Dave Hirschfeld]

Not sure if this is an appropriate forum for pyzmq problems but since it's
a dependency for the parallel stuff I thought I'd post here.

This is more of a heads-up in case people weren't aware of possible problems
running off the latest github checkouts. Running stock zmq 2.1.4 with the pyzmq
2.1.4 branch works except for the (benign?) error:

======================================================================
FAIL: test_create (zmq.tests.test_socket.TestSocket)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\dev\bin\Python26\Lib\site-packages\zmq\tests\test_socket.py", 
    line 47, in test_create
    self.assertRaisesErrno(zmq.EPROTONOSUPPORT, s.bind, 'ftl://a')
  File "C:\dev\bin\Python26\Lib\site-packages\zmq\tests\__init__.py", 
    line 104, in assertRaisesErrno
    got '%s'" % (zmq.ZMQError(errno), zmq.ZMQError(e.errno)))
AssertionError: wrong error raised,
                expected 'Unknown error' got 'Protocol not supported'

----------------------------------------------------------------------


* With trunk pyzmq and trunk zmq I get the following error:

* With trunk pyzmq and 2.1.6 zmq, pyzmq compiles but the tests segfault:
