Paul Moore added the comment: Checking the exact error could be a bit fragile. I have a feeling I recently saw an issue somewhere with code that stopped working on Python 3.4 because the precise error raised for a read-only file changed. I don't recall where the issue was, unfortunately.
It's also worth noting that trapping too broad a set of errors won't actually matter much, because the retry will simply fail again if the actual problem wasn't a read-only file... ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19643> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
