These files are created by some NFS clients a file is edited and removed
concurrently (see added link in doc for more info). If such a file is
removed between distutils calls listdir and copy, it will get confused.
Other special files are ignored in sdist (namely VCS directories), but
this has to be filtered out earlier.
may differ between sysconfig and distutils.sysconfig due to
compiler customizations on OS X. For now, move those vars
into a separate test and skip if the customization has taken
place in distutils. The long-term solution is to eliminate
having two sysconfig modules.
tailoring for universal builds by factoring out common OS X-specific
customizations from sysconfig, distutils.sysconfig, distutils.util,
and distutils.unixccompiler into a new module _osx_support that can
eventually also be used by packaging.
These regex changes fix a number of issues for distutils on Windows:
- #6884: impossible to include a file starting with 'build'
- #9691 and #14004: sdist includes too many files
- #13193: test_filelist failures
This commit replaces the incorrect changes done in 0a94e2f807c7 and
90b30d62caf2 to fix#13193; we were too eager to fix the test failures
and I did not study the code enough before greenlighting patches. This
time we have unit tests from the problems reported by users to be sure
we have the right fix.
Thanks to Nadeem Vawda for his help.
Bug reported by Hartmut Goebel and patch contributed by Carl Robben.
Carl tested the fix and we have a buildbot with rpm installed, so I’m
committing even though I could not run this test (but I do understand
the changed code :)
- Actually check the contents of the file created by bdist_dumb.
- Don’t use “RECORD” as filename for non-PEP 376 record file
- Don’t start method name with “_test”, it smells like a disabled test
method instead of an helper method
- Fix some idioms (assertIn, addCleanup)
