Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment: That test was added as part of #1309352, to check that fcntl accepted 64-bit arguments on 64-bit systems. Previously it would raise an OverflowError. Perhaps we should silent the IOError, since it only shows that the OS refuses that particular case, not that the Python wrapper is at fault.
(seeing you have problems, I don't know how to make the test pass reliably on all systems; it does pass on my x86-64 system) ---------- nosy: +pitrou _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7247> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
