Package: python-apt Version: 0.9.3.5 Severity: normal Consider the following snippet:
--%<--------------------------------------------------- import gc import os import sys import apt_pkg print os.listdir("/proc/self/fd/") f = apt_pkg.TagFile(sys.argv[1]) print os.listdir("/proc/self/fd/") del f print os.listdir("/proc/self/fd/") gc.collect print os.listdir("/proc/self/fd/") -->%--------------------------------------------------- calling apt_pkg.TagFile() opens a file descriptor but that descriptor is not closed when the object gets deleted or even garbage collection is explicitly run. Here the output: ['0', '1', '2', '3'] ['0', '1', '2', '3', '4'] ['0', '1', '2', '3', '4'] ['0', '1', '2', '3', '4'] The opened fd should be closed when the python object is destroyed. cheers, josch -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.11-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages python-apt depends on: ii libapt-inst1.5 1.0.1 ii libapt-pkg4.12 1.0.1 ii libc6 2.18-4 ii libgcc1 1:4.8.2-16 ii libstdc++6 4.8.2-16 ii python 2.7.5-5 ii python-apt-common 0.9.3.5 Versions of packages python-apt recommends: ii iso-codes 3.52-1 ii lsb-release 4.1+Debian12 ii xz-utils 5.1.1alpha+20120614-2 Versions of packages python-apt suggests: pn python-apt-dbg <none> pn python-apt-doc <none> ii python-gtk2 2.24.0-3+b1 pn python-vte <none> -- debconf-show failed -- debsums errors found: sh: 1: /usr/sbin/dpkg-divert: not found -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
