It's definitely acceptable - there's no doubt the pip 10.0.1 behaviour is a bug (that's been fixed). No-one is arguing otherwise. The suggestion to remove the backslashes was nothing more than a workaround that can be used until the next release of pip. Paul -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Thanks Paul for the prompt reply, However, each entry in this Windows 10 path has a trailing backslash. If my memory is correct, this is the default for path directories. IMHO it would have been useful to have "warning" somewhere in these messages.

detect laptop open/close from within Python?
I'm going through a bout of RSI problems with my wrists, so klst night I refreshed an old typing watcher program I wrote a couple decades ago (there's a comment about Python 1.4 in the code!): https://github.com/smontanaro/python-bits/blob/master/watch.py It's far from perfect and I'm sure miles behind more modern stuff, but it does the trick for me. I noticed a feww minutes ago that when I opened my laptop it immediately locked the screen. It would be nice to get notified of open/close events on the laptop. Any idea if there is a signal I can catch (Ubuntu 17.10) or a Tk event I can respond to? Thx, Skip -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I have seen that, but that did not work in my case.

That would make the usage of cache superfluous and I am wondering if
that is really the issue. See reply below.

Tried this, but it did not work.

For the moment I do in my (tcl) script:
while {[catch ${command} errorStr opts]} {
incr errors
if {${debug}} {
puts
puts ${opts}
puts
}
if {${errors} >= ${maxTries}} {
error "Could not get ${pip} information with ${errors} tries"
}
}
There is not always a problem and if there is a problem it is never
more as once. (Till now.)
I use command because I do it for pip2 and pip3.
It is filled with:
# First 2 lines are a header
set command {set outdated \
[lrange \
[split [exec ${pip} list --outdated] \n] \
2 end]}
And pip is pip2 or pip3.
