Skip the test if the function is missing. Use U+0061 (a) instead of U+00E9 (é)
because U+00E9 raises a _curses.error('unget_wch() returned ERR') on some
buildbots. It's maybe because of the locale encoding.
tarfile unnecessarily checked the existence of numerical user and group ids on
extraction. If one of them did not exist the respective id of the current user
(i.e. root) was used for the file and ownership information was lost. (Patch
by Sebastien Luttringer)
On error, call(), check_call(), check_output() and getstatusoutput() functions
of the subprocess module now kill the process, read its status (to avoid
zombis) and close pipes.
The right-hand part in [extension: foo] is now used as the name of the
extension module. (I changed the separator from = to : and allowed
whitespace to make the sections look nicer.)
This huge module is the heir of six distutils modules, and contains
a number of miscellaneous functions. I have attempted to help readers
of the source code with an annoted __all__. Removed or deprecated
functions have been removed from the documentation; I’m working on
another patch to document the remaining public functions.
For the curious:
The unzip_file and untar_file were used by (or intended to be used by)
“pysetup install path/to/archive.tar.gz”, but the code presently used
shutil.unpack_archive and an helper function, so I just deleted them.
They’re still in the repository if we need them in the future.
The find_packages function is not used anymore but I want to discuss
module and package auto-discovery (in “pysetup create”) again before
removing it.
subst_vars now lives in sysconfig; rfc822_escape is inlined in
packaging.metadata. Other functions are for internal use only, or
deprecated; I have left them out of __all__ and sprinkled TODO notes
for future cleanups.
- Issue #9651: Fix a crash when ctypes.create_string_buffer(0) was passed to file.write()
- Issue #11241: subclasses of ctypes.Array can now be subclassed.
Windows does set the errno attribute to ENOENT, but the error message
displays the Windows error number (3 -> ERROR_PATH_NOT_FOUND), not the
errno number (2 -> ENOENT).
The Unix errno corresponding to 3 is ESRCH, explaining the confusion,
which can be seen in the following snippet:
>>> shutil.rmtree("foo")
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "Z:\default\lib\shutil.py", line 272, in rmtree
onerror(os.listdir, path, sys.exc_info())
File "Z:\default\lib\shutil.py", line 270, in rmtree
names = os.listdir(path)
WindowsError: [Error 3] The system cannot find the path specified:
'foo\\*.*'
>>> e = sys.last_value
>>> e.errno
2
>>> e.winerror
3
>>> errno.errorcode[2]
'ENOENT'

There was already a test for this, but it was complicated and had a
subtle bug (custom command objects need to be put in dist.command_obj so
that other command objects may see them) that rendered it moot.
Packaging uses the shutil.make_archive function copied from distutils,
which does not support compress. There is no test to check that
“bdist --format whatever” works, so this slipped by.
These options were used to implement “setup.py --name”,
“setup.py --version”, etc. which are now handled by the pysetup metadata
action or direct parsing of the setup.cfg file.
As a side effect, the Distribution class no longer accepts a 'url' key
in its *attrs* argument: it has to be 'home-page' to be recognized as a
valid metadata field and passed down to the dist.metadata object.
I cleaned up some comments, docstrings and code along the way.
When called without option (“-f field” or “--all”), “pysetup metadata”
didn’t do anything useful. Now it prints out all metadata fields. The
“--all” option is removed.
-j doesn't pass the memlimit on to child processes, so this doesn't work at
present, and even if it did, running multiple bigmem tests at once would
usually not be desirable (since you generally want to devote as much of the
available RAM as possible to each test).

- First, support.fixup_build_ext (already used to set proper
library_dirs value under Unix shared builds) gains the ability to
correctly set the debug attribute under Windows debug builds.
- Second, the filename for the extension module gets a _d suffix under
debug builds.
- Third, the test code properly puts our customized build_ext object
into an internal dictionary to make sure that the install command will
later use our object instead of re-creating one. That’s the downside
of using low-level APIs in our test code: we have to manually push
knobs and turn handles that would otherwise be handled behind the
scenes.
Thanks to Nadeem for the testing.

* Use str.startswith(tuple): I didn't know this Python feature, Python rocks!
* Replace sometimes sys.platform.startswith('linux') with
sys.platform == 'linux'
* sys.platform doesn't contain the major version on Cygwin on Mac OS X
(it's just 'cygwin' and 'darwin')
On Linux, sys.platform doesn't contain the major version anymore. It is now
always 'linux', instead of 'linux2' or 'linux3' depending on the Linux version
used to build Python.
The existing test_record is not easily extendable to add script files or
extension modules: it collects all files from fake_dists and generates a
RECORD file at runtime. I felt more comfortable adding a new test
written from scratch more self-contained (just one project with
well-defined files) and more stupid (the checksums and sizes are
computed once and hard-coded).
- Rename an attribute and create it in initialize_options instead of
finalize_options to match the other install_* classes
- Remove unnecessary method call in tests
I need to copy this file in another test too, so I moved the support
code to distutils.tests.support and improved it to use proper skip
machinery instead of custom print/return/test suite fiddling.
Contrary to my similar change in distutils tests, I did not add support
for finding xxmodule.c when running a test from the tests directory,
because in that case my compiler didn’t find Python.h, so I figured it’s
better to skip than to fail.
I made a note a month ago that install --record wrote incorrect entries
for extension modules (I think the problem was that the first character
of the file was stripped), so I’m now adding a test to try to reproduce
that in the current versions.

The example version numbers were invalid and “package” was misused. I
also made lines shorter, replaced “e-mail” with “email” (more common in
the stdlib and I believe in English generally) and tweaked a few other
things.
