[issue3581] failures in test_uuid
devurandom added the comment: > Well, without a valid MAC address the function cannot work... It should not break in such ugly way either, imo. > On the other hand, I would not worry too much: > uuid._ifconfig_getnode() is an internal function; and since all the > other tests pass, uuid.getnode() probably has other ways to get a > unique identifier for the machine. Here test_uuid fails due to this issue. Which in turn prevents my python3 rpm from being build. > And by the way, in python 3.2, the test function is skipped with this > message: > """WARNING: uuid._ifconfig_getnode is unreliable on many platforms. >It is disabled until the code and/or test can be fixed properly.""" That does not seem to be true anymore in Python 3.2.2. Would be nice if you could detect the all-zero case and just skip the test in that case. -- nosy: +devurandom ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue3581> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue6715] xz compression support
New submission from devurandom : Python currently supports zlib, gzip and bzip2 compressors. What is missing is support for xz (http://tukaani.org/xz/). It comes with a C library. -- components: Library (Lib) messages: 91657 nosy: devurandom severity: normal status: open title: xz compression support type: feature request versions: Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.0, Python 3.1, Python 3.2 ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue6715> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue6715] xz compressor support
devurandom added the comment: Yes, xz-utils contains a C library, though it still caries the name "liblzma.so", probably for historic reasons. You are right that xz is a file format based around the lzma algorithm. It just uses a more advanced container format. (lzma-utils had no container at all.) xz is the successor of lzma, which provides a better compression than bzip2, while decompression speed is comparable with gzip. It is used by the GNU project for source tarball compression (replacing bzip2) and supported by GNU tar. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xz, http://tukaani.org/xz/ and http://tukaani.org/lzma/ for reference. -- title: xz compression support -> xz compressor support ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue6715> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue6715] xz compressor support
devurandom added the comment: .lzma is actually not a format. It is just the raw output of the LZMA1 coder. XZ instead is a container format for the LZMA2 coder, which probably means LZMA+some metadata. XZ is the official successor to .lzma, and GNU is using it already (look at coreutils), and GNU tar officially supports it since 1.22. -- ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue6715> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
