Python is a mature programming language which has established a reputation for
|
|
|
|
|
stability. In order to maintain this reputation, the developers would like to
|
|
|
|
|
know of any deficiencies you find in Python.

Bug reports should be submitted via the Python Bug Tracker
|
2007-08-15 22:28:22 +08:00
|
|
|
(http://bugs.python.org/). The bug tracker offers a Web form which allows
|
|
|
|
|
pertinent information to be entered and submitted to the developers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The first step in filing a report is to determine whether the problem has
|
|
|
|
|
already been reported. The advantage in doing so, aside from saving the
|
|
|
|
|
developers time, is that you learn what has been done to fix it; it may be that
|
|
|
|
|
the problem has already been fixed for the next release, or additional
|
|
|
|
|
information is needed (in which case you are welcome to provide it if you can!).
|
|
|
|
|
To do this, search the bug database using the search box on the top of the page.

test_math and test_cmath are failing on the FreeBSD 6.2 trunk buildbot,
apparently because tanh(-0.) loses the sign of zero on that platform.
If true, this is a bug in FreeBSD.
Added a configure test to verify this. I still need to figure out
how best to deal with this failure.

the prompt rather than always sys.stderr.

Fix a backwards-compatibility mistake where a new optional argument for
warnings.showwarning() was being used. This broke pre-existing replacements for
the function since they didn't support the extra argument.
Closes issue 2705.

This should fix issue2632. A long description of the two competing
problems is in the bug report (one old, one recently introduced trying
to fix the old one). In short:
buffer data during socket._fileobject.read() and readlines() within a
cStringIO object instead of a [] of str()s returned from the recv()
call.
This prevents excessive memory use due to the size parameter being
passed to recv() being grossly larger than the actual size of the data
returned *and* prevents excessive cpu usage due to looping in python
calling recv() with a very tiny size value if min() is used as the
previous memory-use bug "fix" did.
It also documents what the socket._fileobject._rbufsize member is
actually used for.
This is a candidate for back porting to 2.5.

Fix for issue #2573: Can't change the framework name on OS X builds
This introduces a new configure option: --with-framework-name=NAME

and a debug build).

In test_io, StatefulIncrementalDecoderTest was not part of the test suite.
And of course, the test failed:
a bytearray was used without reason in io.TextIOWrapper.tell().
The difference is that iterating over bytes (i.e. str in python2.6) returns 1-char bytes,
whereas bytearrays yield integers.
This code should still work with python3.0

Progress on issue #1193577 by adding a polling .shutdown() method to
SocketServers. The core of the patch was written by Pedro Werneck, but any bugs
are mine. I've also rearranged the code for timeouts in order to avoid
interfering with the shutdown poll.

Issue 705836: Fix struct.pack(">f", 1e40) to behave consistently
across platforms: it should now raise OverflowError on all

so that it actually raises TestFailed instead of just
referencing it.
