New submission from Sunny K: While working on issue7757, i noticed that test_srcdir fails when python is built with prefix "".
This is because in Lib/sysconfig.py, _safe_realpath() is called on srcdir which normalises //lib to /lib. In the test case, it is compared directly to the output of get_makefile_filename(). ====================================================================== FAIL: test_srcdir (__main__.TestSysConfig) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/lib/python3.4/test/test_sysconfig.py", line 356, in test_srcdir srcdir) AssertionError: '//lib/python3.4/config-3.4dm' != '/lib/python3.4/config-3.4dm' - //lib/python3.4/config-3.4dm ? - + /lib/python3.4/config-3.4dm ~/cpython$ python3.4 Python 3.4.0a3+ (default:dad1debba93c+, Oct 22 2013, 02:32:50) [GCC 4.4.3] on linux Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import sys >>> sys.prefix '/' >>> sys.base_prefix '/' >>> ---------- components: Tests messages: 200849 nosy: sunfinite priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: test_sysconfig.test_srcdir fails when sys.base_prefix="/" type: behavior versions: Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19340> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
