New submission from James Stevens <james.stev...@jrcs.co.uk>:

This is not made clear in the Python documentation, but the "libc" documentation makes this clear (see attached). ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation files: Selection_2018-06-26_003.png messages: 320490 nosy: docs@python, james_r_c_stevens priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: os.mknod is subject to "umask" versions: Python 3.6 Added file: https://bugs.python.org/file47653/Selection_2018-06-26_003.png _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33971> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
