My python seems to be having troubles handling floats to integers. I believe it is causing my rdiff-backup to go haywire (as mentioned in my previous thread "rdiff-backup and utime problem").
If I run a python session, I get the following bad results: ~/tmp$ python Python 2.2.2 (#1, Jan 22 2003, 20:44:19) [GCC 3.2.1 20021207 (Gentoo Linux 3.2.1-20021207)] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> int(10.2) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? OverflowError: float too large to convert >>> int(1.2) 0 >>> Does any python experts have a suggestion? Does anyone have this problem? What have I done? I tried re-emerging python but that did not help. I have: CFLAGS='-mcpu=pentium4 -O2 -pipe' dev-lang/python-2.2.2 Using stable x86 Any help much appreciated. -- Jeff Kowing [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
