Sounds right - the daily MSIs were built on my slave from Sep 2007 into 2008 somewhere, but it had been failing for 6 months or more when the task was turned off last December. I'm not sure precisely when the failures started (the buildbot status page was also down for a while starting in March), but it had been failing for a long time. I believe the failures at the time were tcl related - maybe some of the MSI buildbot-related scripts getting out of date with ongoing development or something. Sounds like it might be the same stuff Titus is running into. It didn't seem worth the effort to track down at the time, given that nobody had seemed to notice the lack of builds. -- David _______________________________________________ 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
