Éric Araujo added the comment: Oh well. Re-reading #11933 I see that st_mtime is a float and may not have the required precision (53 bits for Python floats vs 64 bit for timestamps), so the proposed change would not fix this issue and reopen that one. -- _

Éric Araujo added the comment: Coming back to this, I think this should be a safe change that fixes the issue without previsible downside. Jacob, you opened a bug duplicate of this one: could you say what was the undesirable behaviour caused by the coarse resolution? (I would change os.stat(s

Éric Araujo added the comment: It’s a bit hard for me to isolate the distutils problem from the CDBS-specific parts (maybe because I’m tired :). For years, sub-second resolution was not supported by distutils, and things were okay as long as the build* commands did the file creation and inst

Éric Araujo added the comment: Hi David. Thanks for reporting the issue. I have to warn you that there is a high bar for distutils changes; due to the mass of code out there that relies on undocumented internal behavior or works around old bugs, a feature freeze is in effect and we try to b

New submission from David Amian : Hi, I had a problem making deb packages with distutils and cdbs. Looking for any solution, I found Issue 11933 and saw that the newer() method has been changed, using [ST_MTIME] instead of st_mtime. This commit is to solve Issue 10148 that describes a bug when
