hi, (foreword, this email has nothing to do with bug 653215, but it answers a post that was CCed there, so I send it there too for completeness).

(it is not stalling forever, it is waiting for input; the problem is that the output is buffered, so you are not seeing the prompt) > How > will the buildds end up handling this? In buildds , the input is redirected from dev/null, so by looking in config_unix.py I can tell that the 'confirm()' call would default to "no" and the build would be aborted. That is why I patched config_unix.py , so that it will instead not abort because of a missing 'portmidi' dependency on non linux targets. > Second problem is that pygame FTBFS on kfreebsd after the user accepts > the prompt to proceed with the build (see pygame_ftbfs2.png); pygame's > camera extension is Linux-specific. > with the newer pygame it should not; if you have time, please check in the virtual environment; otherwise we may simply upload it and see if it works a.
