New submission from anatoly techtonik <techto...@gmail.com>:
http://docs.python.org/library/subprocess.html#exceptions documentation is
wrong at least for the case when shell=True on Linux. An attempt to execute a
non-existent file with:
process = subprocess.Popen("sdfsdf", shell=True, stdout=subprocess.PIPE,
stderr=errpipe)
out, err = process.communicate()
print out
Results in a message "/bin/sh: sfs: command not found" with no exceptions.
Other statements may be invalid too.
