CAUTION: The Python test still has many failures, but I'm out of time
for this now (already took much longer than hoped to get this far).
The base bz2 library does pass its own tests (see next).
CAUTION: People building on Windows have to download and build tne
bz2 compression libraries now. See PCbuild\readme.txt for complete
instructions.
Fixed by catching all exceptions that are subclasses of DistutilsError,
so only the error message will be printed. You can still get the
whole traceback by enabling the Distutils debugging mode.
instead of into a list for a bit of speed/space savings. Reopened the
bug report too (628246), as I'm unclear on why we don't sort out the
cause of the TypeError instead.
The _update method detected mutable elements by trapping TypeErrors.
Unfortunately, this masked useful TypeErrors raised by the iterable
itself. For cases where it is possible for an iterable to raise
a TypeError, the iterable is pre-converted to a list outside the
try/except so that any TypeErrors propagate through.
dialogs are now stored in Mac/Lib, and loaded on demand through macresource.
Not only does this simplify a MacPython based on Apple's Python, but
it also makes Mac error codes come out symbolically when running command
line python (if you have Mac/Lib in your path).
The resource files are copied from Mac/Resources. The old ones will disappear
after the OS9 build procedure has been adjusted.
The errors attribute can be changed after the reader/writer
is created.
For encoding there are two additional errors values:
"xmlcharrefreplace" and "backslashreplace".
These values can be extended via register_error().
always available on Windows NT. When the function cannot be loaded,
get_special_folder_path raises OSError, "function not available".
Compiled the exe, and rebuilt bdist_wininst.py.
This bug happened because: 1) the scanner_search and scanner_match methods
were not checking the buffer limits before increasing the current pointer;
and 2) SRE_SEARCH was using "if (ptr == end)" as a loop break, instead of
"if (ptr >= end)".
* Modules/_sre.c
(SRE_SEARCH): Check for "ptr >= end" to break loops, so that we don't
hang forever if a pointer passing the buffer limit is used.
(scanner_search,scanner_match): Don't increment the current pointer
if we're going to pass the buffer limit.
* Misc/NEWS
Mention the fix.
* Lib/distutils/command/bdist_rpm.py
(bdist_rpm.initialize_options): Included verify_script attribute.
(bdist_rpm.finalize_package_data): Ensure that verify_script is a filename.
(bdist_rpm._make_spec_file): Included verify_script in script_options
tuple.

Mention change.
Make keyname raise ValueError if passed -1, avoiding a segfault
Make getkey() match the docs and raise an exception in nodelay mode
The return type of getch() is int, not chtype

* Modules/_sre.c
(lastmark_restore): New function, implementing algorithm to restore
a state to a given lastmark. In addition to the similar algorithm used
in a few places of SRE_MATCH, restore lastindex when restoring lastmark.
(SRE_MATCH): Replace lastmark inline restoring by lastmark_restore(),
function. Also include it where missing. In SRE_OP_MARK, set lastindex
only if i > lastmark.
* Lib/test/re_tests.py
* Lib/test/test_sre.py
Included regression tests for the fixed bugs.
* Misc/NEWS
Mention fixes.
