[issue5480] .egg-info = .pkg-info
New submission from Zooko O'Whielacronx zo...@zooko.com: The .egg-info files which are produced by distutils in Python = 2.5 are the only standard, cross-platform way for a Python package (distribution) to declare its name and version number in a machine-parseable way. Unfortunately, these files are named .egg-info even when the Python package in question was produced by distutils without setuptools, was never packaged as an egg, and is not installed as an egg. It has nothing to do with egg. The fact that the file has egg in its name causes most people to think that it has something to do with eggs, which leads to all sorts of problems including people removing the file and thus deleting the machine-parseable metadata about the Python package's name and version number. This ticket is a request that distutils start calling this file .pkg-info instead. Obviously we can't just stop including them under the name .egg-info since that would break existing usage, but we could start producing files under the name .pkg-info, and make .egg-info be a symlink or a copy of .pkg-info for backwards compatibility. Also of course we can update the documentation (if there is any) of what the .pkg-info file is. Since the current problems are mostly problems of communication and documentation, this simple change to the name of the file might go a long way to improving things. -- assignee: tarek components: Distutils messages: 83492 nosy: tarek, zooko severity: normal status: open title: .egg-info = .pkg-info type: feature request versions: Python 2.7 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue5480 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue3863] 2.6rc1: test_threading hangs on FreeBSD 6.3 i386
bms b...@incunabulum.net added the comment: Hi, I've committed a fix to FreeBSD-CURRENT for POSIX semaphores this morning. Root cause analysis on the fork-mt issue points towards the rtld and malloc in RELENG_7 not being able to deal with a mixture of fork and mt. As a workaround, you may wish to try my patches against the FreeBSD port to build with GNU Pth (until we can settle on resolution):- http://people.freebsd.org/~bms/dump/python26-fbsd-pth.patch thanks!

[issue3770] test_multiprocessing fails on systems with HAVE_SEM_OPEN=0
bms b...@incunabulum.net added the comment: POSIX semaphores should be fixed in 8-CURRENT, pending MFC. There are rtld + malloc issues in FreeBSD. Python multiprocessing's use of POSIX threads is not strictly POSIX compliant, as it tries to do a lot more than just call exec() or async-signal-safe POSIX APIs after fork()-ing. There is a degree of reluctance in the camp to fix for these reasons... In the meantime, you may wish to try building Python 2.6 on FreeBSD using GNU Pth, here is a patch: http://people.freebsd.org/~bms/dump/python26-fbsd-pth.patch thanks!

[issue5480] .egg-info = .pkg-info
Zooko O'Whielacronx zo...@zooko.com added the comment: Thank you. I've now read PEP 376. It is good. However, this same issue remains in PEP 376 like it does in today's distutils. If the new work in PEP 376 is going to continue to use the word egg in its filenames, then we need to send out an announcement of some sort to say HEY! Pay attention! This is actually a supported part of the core of Python even though it has the word 'egg' in it.. I suppose including a sentence to that effect in the distutils release announcements and in the What's new in Python document will suffice. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue5480 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue5450] test_tcl testLoadTk fails if DISPLAY defined but connect fails, instead of being skipped
R. David Murray rdmur...@bitdance.com added the comment: I tried using TestSkipped first, but since I was throwing it from an individual testcase and not from the top level, it still showed up as an error in test_tcl (I may have done it wrong, of course). Moving the tests makes more sense anyway, so I've revised my patch to do that. I didn't move all of the tests because as far as I could understand the test.test_tk code, if I moved them all they'd only get run if the GUI resource was enabled, and that seems wrong. So I just moved the tests that specifically involved tk. I ran the test suite under a variety of DISPLAY settings and non-settings, and it seemed to do the right thing with the patch applied. I have pushed the change up to Launchpad as well. -- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file13308/test_tcl.patch ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue5450 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

David W. Lambert lamber...@corning.com added the comment: (As I recall) in python-dev mailing list Ray claimed he could clean up a cited active state recipe to address this issue. He succeeded to the extent I'm aware---he's the author of http://code.activestate.com/recipes/576685/. I haven't used the redundant , = comparisons operators in code since 1981. The chances of simplifying python by removing them from the language are None, but the mistake predates python by 10**n years, where (3 = n = 7) or (7 = n = 3). -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue5479 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
