Yes I see this in strstr for example. Thanks, that sounds reasonable. This is basically what I have done in the patch I hope. I have updated the patch to include a comment explaining why output param is char ** and the need for a cast. Have I address the issues sufficiently for the patch to be accepted? Should I go ahead a create the python 3 version of the patch?

That's not really a challenge to the buildbot operator, though - the buildbot will continue just fine afterwards, right? For some reason, the test suite stopped producing output, and eventually, the buildbot decided to kill the build process. Most likely, the machine ran severely out of memory, so everything stopped working.

[Python-Dev] EC2 buildslaves

I've just played a bit and, after the hassle of juggling with a bunch of different keys and credentials, setting up an instance and saving an image for future use is quite easy.

[Python-Dev] thanks to everyone cleaning up the tests
Just wanted to publicly thank everyone who has been causing all the checkins to fix and stabilize the test suite (I think it's mostly Antoine and Mark, but I could be missing somebody; I'm under a deadline so only have marginal higher brain functionality). -Brett ___ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com

A lot of work was done by David (RDM). Thanks !
