Yes, test_compileall can still fail for this reason on Windows. From a run just now with -j0 (same as -j10 on this box, which has 8 logical cores: a -j value <= 0 is treated the same as "2 + number of logical cores"): """ Compiling 'C:\\Code\\Python\\lib\\types.py'... *** PermissionError: [WinError 5] Access is denied: 'C:\\Code\\Python\\lib\\__pycache__\\types.cpython-310.pyc.2205988433776' -> 'C:\\Code\\Python\\lib\\__pycache__\\types.cpython-310.pyc' """ I did nothing in particular to try to provoke it. "It's random." So is the specific .py fail it fails on. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37387> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
