[issue14050] Tutorial, list.sort() and items comparability

[Ezio Melotti]

Ezio Melotti  added the comment:

We could just mention that a TypeError is raised if some of the elements can't 
be compared. (Note that sorting a list that contains some types that cannot be 
compared might still succeed in some corner cases, but there's no reason to 
mention this).

[issue14047] UTF-8 Email Header

[Michal Sladek]

Michal Sladek  added the comment:

Hello Eric!

I believe that there is a bug which prevents adding UTF-8 encoded
suject to multipart message properly. But because I am not a
programmer, I admin I might be wrong. So if you are a programmer and
you don't see any obvious mistake in my example code, open that bug
report again. Because in my opinion that code should work properly and
it does not.

Best regards

Michal

[Michal Sladek]

Michal Sladek  added the comment:

I guess you don't understand me.

My script works properly. I don't need any help with it. OK? I have
found a workaround and I am happy with it for now. But I think, there
is a problem in current version of Python language.

Now, what should I do to report the bug with adding UTF-8 encoded
header? I described the problem, I submitted the example code. How can
I draw developers attention to the problem when you close the bug?

We have a Solaris buildbot but it’s offline, so I don’t know if this bug is 
still current.  If it is, then it should be easy to use “cc + ' -P'” for that

It the failures are caused by the test depending on dict order (i.e. not real

The original code never worked properly on Windows - that's what the XXX
comment in glob_to_re() is about. I've been able to reproduce the problem
(erroneously including ".hg\last-message.txt") on v2.7.2 (8527427914a2).

[issue9691] sdist includes files that are not in MANIFEST.in

[Nadeem Vawda]

Nadeem Vawda  added the comment:

This happens because the glob-to-regexp translator assumes that the
directory separator is "/", regardless of platform. Consequently, the
regexp for "include *.py" ends up matching "sandbox\dummy.py" erroneously
on Windows.

The problem is currently being discussed in issue 6884; I'm marking this
issue as a duplicate.

[issue12393] Packaging should provide support for extensible categories

[Vinay Sajip]

Vinay Sajip  added the comment:

> So I’ll certainly reuse your tests, but will have to redo the implementation.

That's fine, but please bear in mind what I said about a 100% declarative 
approach being insufficient - see the Windows example I gave, where Windows 
APIs have to be called at installation time to determine how the categories are 
set up. My tests don't cater for that, but in my view it's an important 
requirement that shouldn't be lost. That's why I put the code into a hook, 
install_data being the one which required minimal changes to the code.

I'm not wedded to the specific implementation, simple though it is - I was 
aiming for a solution that worked and would be easy to review. I agree that 
install_data may not be the best section for this, and the global section seems 
more reasonable. But the key thing, apart from the parsing logic etc., is to 
allow changes / additions to the categories to be made at installation time by 
user-defined code (=> hook).

[issue13090] test_multiprocessing: memory leaks

[Charles-François Natali]

Charles-François Natali  added the comment:

> Two others seem to be the internal "bootstate" structure used to
> run thread objects (daemon threads?).

Even for daemon threads, since the boostate structure is freed when
the thread's run() method returns, this shouldn't show up as a
"definitely lost" leak. It wouldn't be freed on exit, but it should
still be reachable.

However, I have a stupid question: are those logs for the main
process, or for child processes ?
Because if fork() is called while other threads are running, since
only the main thread exists in the child process, all the blocks only
reachable from the other threads stacks at the time of the fork -
among which the bootstate structure, and probably the buffer allocated
in posix_read() while a thread is blocked on the read() syscall - are
effectively leaked in the child process since they're not referenced
anymore.

[issue14052] importlib mixes up '.' and os.getcwd()

[Nick Coghlan]

Nick Coghlan  added the comment:

Purging __file__ of relative references isn't a problem - they're *supposed* to 
always be absolute. The import.c version just stuffs it up sometimes (mainly 
due to the way it handles the empty string in the path).

IOW, while the importlib behaviour *is* different from the old behaviour, it's 
really a long overdue fix rather than a defect.
(You can still induce weirdness by adding paths involving '.' or '..' to 
sys.path, but that's more a case of "don't do that". We add the empty string 
ourselves, so we should handle it more cleanly than we do in import.c)

[issue14053] Make Tools/scripts/patchcheck.py compatible with mercurial mqueues.

[Francisco Martín Brugué]

New submission from Francisco Martín Brugué :

The devguide (http://docs.python.org/devguide/patch.html) recommends the use of 
the mercurial “mq” feature to work with patches and that works IMHO very well. 
It also states that before sending the patch a sanity check should be done 
('devguide: Preparation and Generation'). At this stage, if one has the patch 
as tip (hg qapplied), the advice to run “pathcheck” doesn't help as no changes 
are noticed.

The message is:
---
Modules/Setup.dist is newer than Modules/Setup;
check to make sure you have all the updates you
need in your Modules/Setup file.
Usually, copying Modules/Setup.dist to Modules/Setup will work.
---
./python ./Tools/scripts/patchcheck.py
Getting the list of files that have been added/changed ... 0 files
Fixing whitespace ... 0 files
Fixing C file whitespace ... 0 files

The tool should check if some mq patches are applied (from “normal” tip to 
“mqtip” and make it's checks there.

Thanks in advance !

Francis

[issue6784] byte/unicode pickle incompatibilities between python2 and python3

[Merlijn van Deen]

Merlijn van Deen  added the comment:

Last night, I hacked together a wrapper to do what loewis suggested [1]. It 
pickles bytes to str (for protocol <= 2), and unpickles str to bytes.

If I (ever) get the build system and tests of python itself to work, I'll try 
and see if I can implement a nicer solution - at least for pickle.py.

[issue13842] Cannot pickle Ellipsis or NotImplemented

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou  added the comment:

I haven't taken a look at the patch in detail, but it lacks some tests.
Pickling tests are generally in Lib/test/pickletester.py, they are invoked by 
test_pickle and test_pickletools.

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou  added the comment:

> I'm completely new to the C API so not sure if the way I am building

It's correct but it's probably less efficient than calling a more specialized 
function, such as PyUnicode_FromString():
http://docs.python.org/dev/c-api/unicode.html#PyUnicode_FromString

You also have to check the return value (for non-NULL, NULL meaning an error 
occurred) before calling save_global with it.

[issue13641] decoding functions in the base64 module could accept unicode strings

[Catalin Iacob]

Catalin Iacob  added the comment:

Attached v2 of patch where mixing str and binary data for altchars or map01 
raises TypeError.

I also added a note for each of the changed functions that it also accepts 
strings (but didn't also update the docstrings).

When writing the docs, the new functionality seemed hard to describe; maybe 
that means this issue only complicates things and is not worth it, or maybe it 
just means I don't have experience at writing docs.

But, regardless of having worked at a patch, I have to admit that I'm also not 
100% sure this issue is a good idea. I *do* think that either both this issue 
and #13637 should be accepted or both rejected.

[Antoine Pitrou]

I think trying to prevent mixed argument types is completely overkill. There's 
no ambiguity since they all have to be ASCII anyway.

[issue14047] UTF-8 Email Header

[Martin v . Löwis]

Martin v. Löwis  added the comment:

Michal, it's your wording of your report, and also some of the contents that 
caused Eric's reaction. When you conclude with "Am I doing something wrong?", 
then your message is *not* a bug report, but a question for help (namely, you 
are asking somebody to find out whether you did something wrong).

Please structure bug reports as follows:
1. this is what I did
2. this is what happened
3. this is what I expected to happen instead

Your report gives hints at 1, but neither discusses 2 or 3. I.e. you say what 
code you write, but you did not say (AFAICT) what parameters you passed to the 
function. And you did not say what happened when you passed the parameters.

This is important information, as the first step of us is to reproduce the bug 
report, i.e. try out all your steps and see whether the same happens also when 
we do it (which often enough is not the case).

Since this bug report is already filled with unrelated meta-discussion, please 
submit a new bug report in the style I explain above.

[issue6784] byte/unicode pickle incompatibilities between python2 and python3

[Merlijn van Deen]

Merlijn van Deen  added the comment:

OK, this is the pickle.py patch. A new parameter 'bytestr' has been added to 
both _Pickler and _Unpickler to toggle the pickle.string<=>bytes behaviour:

_Pickler:
IF protocol <= 2 AND bytestr=True
THEN bytes are stored as STRING/SHORT_BINSTRING/BINSTRING
ELSE (the old behaviour; obj for protocol <=2, else BINARY)

_Unpickler:
IF bytestr=True
THEN STRING/SHORT_BINSTRING/BINSTRING are read as bytes
ELSE they are read as str (old behaviour)

I also extracted the decoding stuff from the three string reading functions to 
a single one.

P.S. (sorry for forgetting this in the original post ;-))

Both 
  ./python -m test -G -v test_pickle
and
  ./python test_bytestrpickle.py
pass, but I have not run the entire test suite, as that takes ~90 minutes on my 
laptop

The test script should of course be merged with test_pickle.py at some time

[issue13090] test_multiprocessing: memory leaks

[Stefan Krah]

Stefan Krah  added the comment:

Valgrind was run with --trace-children=no. However, the option is a bit
tricky, since it only affects tracing of sub-processes initiated via the
exec system call.

Even with --trace-children=no Valgrind *does* trace into the child of a fork:

All lines of the log I posted are prefixed with ==3047==, which should
be the process number of the main thread.

I don't know if Valgrind reports leaks in a forked-without-exec-child
as part of the parent process log. But it could be the case here.

Regarding the posix_read leak: Running with --num-callers=50 shows
that it's also thread related:

[issue14053] Make Tools/scripts/patchcheck.py compatible with mercurial mqueues.

[Nadeem Vawda]

Nadeem Vawda  added the comment:

Thanks for taking this up; it's something that's been bothering me for a
while now.

A couple of comments:

- The mq_changed_files() function will break if the user has specified
  git-format diffs in their ~/.hgrc file. In this case, the diff command
  in the output will begin with "diff --git" instead of "diff -r".

- What happens if a file has been deleted by the patch? The regular
  "hg status" command is set up to only return the added/modified files.
  You might want to check whether the file currently exists before adding
  it to the list of filenames to check.

- Have you considered the possibility of there being multiple patches?
  In this case, I think it makes sense to check the files in every patch,
  not just the topmost.


  An alternative approach that solves all three of these problems is to
  check whether we have any patches applied (using "hg qapplied"), and if
  this is the case, then add "--rev qbase" to the "hg status" command
  line. This will list all files added/modified by patches as well as by
  uncommitted changes.


- Using an mq command (e.g. qdiff or qapplied) will fail if the user does
  not have the mq extension enabled. In this case, mq_changed_files()
  should not allow Mercurial's error message to be printed. Ideally, it
  should distinguish between this and other errors by checking the
  subprocess's stderr, so that if a different error occurs, we can still
  print out the error message.

- In changed_files(), I don't think it makes sense to create an empty
  list ("files = []") and then append to it immediately. It would be
  better to just initialize "files" directly from the list comprehension.

Can you reproduce the “include buildout.cfg” bug too?  (2.7.2 doesn’t include 
neither Antoine’s changeset nor mine, right?)

(Want another one?  #1702551  Blergh)

[issue14019] Unify tests for str.format and string.Formatter

[Éric Araujo]

Éric Araujo  added the comment:

(ISTM that such test improvements would be beneficial to all branches, and we 
would also eschew merge issues if we change all branches.  Other core devs 
sometimes object to test improvements or additions in stable branches though.)

Well, the config file approach supports simple cases, and for people needing 
Windows API calls, they will be able to use a pre-command hook.  In that case 
though, there will be no validation; this is a general problem with how 
commands and hooks work.

[issue14056] Misc doc changes for tarfile

[Éric Araujo]

New submission from Éric Araujo :

A few things to improve in tarfile’s doc:

a) I found the heading “The following variables are available on module level” 
strange; does “variable” mean that users are able to edit tarfile.ENCODING to 
control the default encoding used?  The answer is no, as ENCODING is bound to a 
function default argument value and a class attribute at import time.  I 
suggest changing this heading for something like “Module-level constants”, and 
move it before the doc for the *_FORMATS constants (the attached diff makes it 
look like I moved these constants, but I actually moved ENCODING—same result).

b) The doc does not say that the availability of compression formats depends on 
the optional compilation of some modules.  Someone following the link to the 
module docs for gzip, bz2 or lzma can find the info, but I think a bit more 
explicitness wouldn’t hurt.  The attached patch for 3.2 tries to inline the 
info, but is a bit clumsy; alternatively, a table like this could be added near 
the top:

   Support depends on the availability of certain optional modules:

   = === =
   FormatDescription Requires
   = === =
   ``xz``xz'ed tar file (:file:`.tar.xz`):mod:`lzma`
   ``bz2``   bzip2'ed tar file (:file:`.tar.bz2`):mod:`bz2`
   ``gz``gzip'ed tar file (:file:`.tar.gz`)  :mod:`gzip`
   = === =

c) The seealso section links to zipfile, just like the into text, but not to 
shutil.

Please let me know what suggestions you approve or reject and I’ll commit them.

[issue14012] Misc tarfile fixes

[Éric Araujo]

Éric Araujo  added the comment:

Another one: now that shutil provides archiving operations, there is a circular 
dependency between tarfile and shutil.  It does not cause problems*, as both 
modules use qualified names, but it may be a good thing to avoid import 
cascades for performance reasons.  The single shutil function used by tarfile 
could be inlined, as I did in distutils2, or you may reject this idea.

* Except in distutils2’s backport, see 
http://hg.python.org/distutils2/rev/c1b1b537196d

[issue14057] Speedup sysconfig startup

[STINNER Victor]

New submission from STINNER Victor :

On my laptop, start Python compiled in debug mode takes 600 ms. Half of this 
time is spend in the site module. And most of this time is spend in load the 
sysconfig module, which parse sysconfig.cfg, just to get the user site packages 
directory.

Attached patch adds a copy of configparser.RawConfigParser, specialized to 
parse sysconfig.cfg. Using this patch, Python startup is 25% faster (I didn't 
check in release mode).

[issue14057] Speedup sysconfig startup

[Éric Araujo]

Éric Araujo  added the comment:

The site.getusersitepackages, site.addusersitepackages and co. functions all 
call one function which makes sure site.USER_SITE is set according to envvars 
and command-line options; under python -s, addusersitepackages will not add the 
user site dir to sys.path, but it will cause site.USER_SITE to be set (to 
False), so that’s why I can’t be sure that your patch does not change behavior. 
 test_site has good coverage for IIRC (just not sure if it covers starting 
python -s/-S and then importing site, and python -s/-S then import site then 
call site.main).

I regret that all these site functions are public, now we can’t simplify them 
to have the setting of site.USER_SITE in only one place.
