Ned Deily <n...@acm.org> added the comment: Fixing sys.executable to point to the stub launcher instead of the interpreter in the fw will also fix other unrelated issues, like making python3-32 work properly in 64-/32-bit builds for IDLE and for tests that spawn interpreters in subprocesses. Today, while the main process is 32-bit, the interpreters in subprocesses are 64-bit.
I did a little clean up and fixed up the documentation somewhat; see the revised patch. But building a stock installer and running the tests showed two issues: 1) test_osx_env fails at line 28, checking PYTHONEXECUTABLE 2) when running the tests within a venv, test_venv now fails at line 95; sys.baseprefix != sys.prefix. This did not fail previously Also, I saw another test failure when building and running with a test framework environment that included a relative link. It appeared that _NSGetExecutablePath in pythonw.c returned an unnormalized path: >>> sys.executable '/py/dev/default/b10.7_t10.7_x4.3_cclang_d/fw/./root/bin/python3.3' which caused a test_venv failure. I probably won't have time to look at this again for a few days. ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file26373/venv-symlinks-v4.txt _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15307> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
