** Description changed: - When there is a failure to import a module this failure is logged but - also means that everything else will be logged to stdout from that point - on. + When failing to import a module the gi.repository import.py module logs an error with `logging.error(..)` causing a logging handler to be added. + This basically breaks the ability to configure the logging as it happens so early (i.e. at the import stage before an authors code is executed). - The Issue: - When failing to import a module the gi.repository import module adds a handler, that sends output to stdout, to the root logger. This means that _any_ logging after the failed import will be sent to stdout. + To reproduce/Example: - To reproduce/test: + Run this script: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7698632/ - Run the python script found here: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7693434/ + Expected outcome: + No output to stdout or stderr and the text "log message" in the file "/tmp/example.log - Expected output: Nothing. No logging and no text etc. + Actual outcome: + No log file, and this text output to stderr: + ERROR:root:Could not find any typelib for rubbish + ERROR:root:log message - Actual Output: - ERROR:root:Could not find any typelib for rubbish - INFO:something-not-root:You shouldn't see this - - Note that you can see the logged output for "something-not-root" even - though it's logging level is set to INFO (which isn't normally shown).
