[Python-Dev] w9xpopen.exe is still in 3.2

2011-02-19 Thread anatoly techtonik
Python definitely needs a development Roadmap to avoid things like w9xpopen.exe slipping off radar from release to release. We don't support Windows 9x since Python 2.6. What this file does in 3.x distributions? http://bugs.python.org/issue2405 -- anatoly t. __

[Python-Dev] Bug in linking to gomp with python; causes crash in matplotlib.

2011-02-19 Thread Hoyt Koepke
Hello, I've encountered a strange bug that appears to be either in gcc's gomp implementation or in how python loads extension modules linked against gomp. Here's the error: Using gcc (multiple versions) on linux, I compile an empty c extension module and pass -lgomp as a linker arg. If I import

Hi, sorry for asking here instead of filing a bug, but given that 3.2 final is pretty close, I wanted to make sure this gets considered. A Cython user noticed that the installation (setup.py install or bdist) puts several .pyc files into the installed source directory, instead of moving them
