Éric Araujo <mer...@netwok.org> added the comment: I have a patch that needs testing on Cpython Windows and if possible IPython. The test makes sure that the error message contains the path to the file (which the incomplete error message you report also does, BTW), and an explanation of the error (to address the OP’s concern that the message must be helpful): it looks for the string 'denied'; if this is not cross-platform, I won’t commit this line. (Antoine, I’ve made you nosy because I think you may have expertise on that last point.)
(BTW, I have tracked down the source of the mysterious None (I’m getting better at these things, but my mental sanity takes a toll each time): core.setup catches the exception and wants to display exc.filename and exc.strerror.) ---------- assignee: tarek -> eric.araujo components: +Distutils, Distutils2 keywords: +needs review, patch nosy: +alexis, higery, pitrou stage: needs patch -> patch review versions: +3rd party, Python 3.3 -Python 3.1 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file23093/fix-7219.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7219> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
