Martin v. Löwis <mar...@v.loewis.de> added the comment: It should not hang anymore, since r84172/r84198. The issue was a GIL-based deadlock: the GIL was acquired and then not released in a callback function, so the next callback caused a deadlock.
The actual cause was a non-ASCII character in the NIS database which caused Unicode creation to fail in the callback. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3402> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
