Greg Ward 7cf7e7e529 Undo revision 1.7: always mangle a #! line containing "python" to point
to the current Python interpreter (ie. the one used for
building/installation), even (especially!) if "/usr/bin/env" appears in
the #! line.

Rationale: installing scripts with "#!/usr/bin/env python" is asking for
trouble, because
  1) it might pick the wrong interpreter (not the one used to
     build/install the script)
  2) it doesn't work on all platforms (try it on IRIX 5, or on Linux
     with command-line options for python)
  3) "env" might not be in /usr/bin

Greg Ward e628a2fa85 Don't "import *" from stat at all -- just import what's needed, and
do it back in copy_file() (not at module level).

Guido van Rossum 8fcc8e1b4f Alex Coventry (SF patch 441791). 2001-07-23 13:28:37 +00:00
Guido van Rossum f48f11cd79 SF Patch #441791, with changes: when "import foo.bar" fails with an
exception in the execution of bar, ensure that foo.bar exists.
(Previously, while sys.modules['foo.bar'] would exist, foo.bar would
only be created upon successful execution of bar.  This is
inconvenient; some would say wrong. :-)

Martin v. Löwis 9db2f571c3 Instead of accessing ss_family, cast sockaddr_storage to sockaddr and access sa_family. 2001-07-23 01:30:10 +00:00
Tim Peters b5c61a899e Leave the Inno script in better shape. Added registration of .py etc
extensions -- but Inno uninstall doesn't restore previous ones (if any),
so that's another step backwards.
