Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment: Looking at the frequent buildbot failures, they always seem to happen in TestMaildir. Therefore, it may have to do with the metadata-updating behaviour of the filesystem (since maildir uses one file per message).
Unfortunately, while I tried to reproduce the failures on my home system with a variety of filesystems (ext3, ext4, reiserfs, xfs and even vfat), I never got any failure here. Ezio, could you give details on your system, your filesystem and its mount options? (if you don't know them, look in /proc/mounts) ---------- nosy: +pitrou versions: +Python 3.1 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6896> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
