Ezio Melotti <ezio.melo...@gmail.com> added the comment: The 3 new failures (test_multiprocessing, test_xmplrpc and test_docxmlrpc) were introduced in r73638 and I opened a new issue about that (#6499). I'll wait to see if and how they should be fixed (and possibly open a new issue for them).
The attached patch fixes test_zipfile, test_zipimport, test_gzip and test_distutils. I used two techniques to fix these files: 1) checking if zlib was available with try: import zlib except ImportError: zlib = None and then using @skipUnless(zlib, "requires zlib") to skip individual tests/classes 2) using zlib = test_support.import_module('zlib') when zlib (or other modules like gzip) was necessary for all the tests The patch includes the following fixes: In test_zipfile there were 5 tests that were failing. Several other tests work without zlib too. Fixed adding 3 @skipUnless(zlib, "requires zlib") to two methods and to the TestsWithMultipleOpens class. In test_zipimport there are 3 test classes. The 3rd class tests various errors that are raised when, for example, the file doesn't exists. This class works without zlib too, but since it's pointless to run it if the other two don't work I decided to skip everything. Fixed adding zlib = test_support.import_module('zlib'). In test_gzip all the files require gzip to work, and gzip requires zlib. Fixed adding gzip = test_support.import_module('gzip'). In test_distutils there are several files affected: test_sdist: fixed with 4 @skipUnless(zlib, "requires zlib") test_bdist_dumb: fixed with a @skipUnless(zlib, "requires zlib") test_archive_util: fixed with 3 @skipUnless(zlib, "requires zlib") If the patch is good I'll commit it. ---------- dependencies: +Can't import xmlrpclib, DocXMLRPCServer and SimpleXMLRPCServer when zlib is not available keywords: +needs review, patch stage: needs patch -> patch review Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file14512/issue6026.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6026> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
