Henry Precheur <he...@precheur.org> added the comment: Here's a small patch to call regression tests without any environment variable defined. It's probably a good thing to run all the tests with a clean state, this way they are less likely to fail for mysterious external reasons. For example test_displayhook_unencodable was failing because I was overriding displayhook in my PYTHONSTARTUP file.
On the other hand, some problems with environment variables might go unnoticed. But I don't think there's much risk. Note that test_distutils will fail with this patch if #12420 is not taken care of beforehand. ---------- keywords: +patch Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file22493/empty_environment.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12401> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
