Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton added the comment: that's not the correct solution, ned. what that will do is when someone runs a combination of python and MSYS under wine, the test will be skipped incorrectly.
thanks to the work that i did back in 2009, wine has now been improved significantly and has been capable of running python correctly for over 3 years now. i use it to do testing of pyjamas-desktop. bottom line: skipping regression tests by making assumptions based solely and exclusively on the platform type is not good news. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5051> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
