I was running the test suite today and I was getting a segfault in test_sqlite. That seemed odd since I had not seen any issues on any buildbots. And running the test independently was fine.
Noticing that sqlite 3.5.5 was recently available I had MacPorts update. Unfortunately this didn't fix things. I narrowed things down to running test_ctypes before test_sqlite as the trigger. In order to debug I wanted to use a version of sqlite that I had compiled. So after figuring out which package to download (turned out to be the amalgamation version with shell.c and the included makefile), and discovering a bug in setup.py where directories from CPPFLAGS were being searched in reversed from their declared order, I managed to get a build with my own version and the problem went away. So I suspect that sqlite3 from MacPorts is built in such a way as to cause issues. This on Leopard which might also somehow influence things. -Brett _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
