[IPython-dev] Shining panda failure that I don't understand

[Fernando Perez]

Hi folks

this build is reporting a failure:

https://jenkins.shiningpanda.com/ipython/job/ipython-multi/PLATFORM=debian6,PYTHON=CPython-2.7/109/changes

and the list of changes are all the commits I just merged. But the
actual traceback is very odd:


ERROR: Failure: ImportError (cannot import name asbytes)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "/home/slave/jenkins/shiningpanda/jobs/f786c3c0/virtualenvs/ff035a1d/lib/python2.7/site-packages/nose/loader.py",

line 42, in <module>
   from IPython.parallel.util import serialize_object,
unpack_apply_message, asbytes
ImportError: cannot import name asbytes

Now, the weird thing is that *there is no file streamkernel.py in
IPython.parallel.engine, at all*.

Thomas, do you think this could be a stale file from an old branch
left by accident in the build dir?

Cheers,
