Source: nose2 Version: 0.15.1-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
The 0004-plugins-mp-set-context-to-fork-for-Python-3.14-mp-AP.patch patch added in 0.15.1-2 is wrong and breaks certain use cases. As discussed in the upstream PR, multiprocessing.set_start_method() is wrong and breaks various use cases as it can only be called once per program (it throws a RuntimeError if called more than once). https://github.com/nose-devs/nose2/pull/644 As a minimum it should handle that exception and/or only call it if needed (E.G. get_start_method() not returning 'fork', but ideally it should not affect global settings as explained in the PR discussion.
