New submission from Nick Coghlan: Trying to provoke the buildbot failure from issue 16129 I was puzzled as to why setting PYTHONHASHSEED was behaving strangely.
The subprocess._args_from_interpreter_flags() helper used by test.support (and multiprocessing) misbehaves when PYTHONHASHSEED is set to a specific value: whatever the seed is, it repeats the 'R' in -R that many times (the helper appears to assume that the only flag with a value greater than 1 will be '-v') ---------- components: Tests keywords: buildbot messages: 200244 nosy: ncoghlan priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: subprocess._args_from_interpreter_flags() mishandles -R versions: Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19284> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
