New submission from Bill Janssen <bill.jans...@gmail.com>: test_tk fails on OS X if test is run from a daemon process without the privilege to access the window server, say a buildbot slave without anyone logged in to the console. The Tk support needs to check whether it has access rights to the window server before trying to access it.
Workaround is to log buildbot into the console of the OS X machine (which usually but not always works), or to run tests manually. ---------- components: Tests, Tkinter messages: 105733 nosy: janssen priority: normal severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: test_tk fails on OS X if run from buildbot slave daemon -- crashes Python type: crash versions: Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2, Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8716> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
