- The _modules cache now uses the full module name.
- The meaning of the (internal!!!) inpackage argument is changed: it
now is the parent package name, or None. readmodule() doesn't
support this argument any more.
- The meaning of the path argument is changed: when inpackage is set,
the module *must* be found in this path (as is the case for the real
package search).
- Miscellaneous cleanup, e.g. fixed __all__, changed some comments and
doc strings, etc.
- Adapted the unit tests to the new semantics (nothing much changed,
really). Added some debugging code to the unit tests that print
helpful extra info to stderr when a test fails (interpreting the
test failures turned out to be hard without these).
see problems with my code that I didn't see before the checkin, but:
When a subtype .mro() fails, we need to reset the type whose __bases__
are being changed, too. Fix + test.
Constructor accepts optional keyword arguments after a optional items list.
Add fromkeys() as an alternate constructor from an iterable over keys.
Expand related unittests.
[ 635933 ] make some type attrs writable
Plus a couple of extra tests beyond what's up there.
It hasn't been as carefully reviewed as it perhaps should, so all readers
are encouraged, nay exhorted, to give this a close reading.
There are still a couple of oddities related to assigning to __name__,
but I intend to solicit python-dev's opinions on these.

interrupted. A try/finally will do nicely. Maybe other classes need
this too, but since they manipulate more state it's less clear that
that is always the right thing, and I'm in a hurry.
Backport candidate.
Previously archive_util.py attempted to spawn an
external 'zip' program for the zip action, if this fails, an
attempt to import zipfile.py is made...
This bites folks who have 'old' or non-conforming zip
programs on windows platforms. This change tries the 'zipfile'
module first, falling back to spawning a zip process if
the module isn't available.
[ 634250 ] SearchDialogBase.py fix for Tk 8.4.1
SearchDialogBase refers to the grid 'col' option
considered ambiguous with Python 2.2.2 and Tk 8.4.1.
The correct name is 'column'.
Make sure we have a UNIX-compatible termios.
Apparently, McMillan Installer made a termios on windows
which caused unix_getpass() to be used instead of win_getpass().
Will backport.
Replaced docstring with comments. Prevents subclass contamination.
Added the missing __cmp__() method and a test for __cmp__().
Used try/except style in preference to has_key() followed by a look-up.
Used iteritem() where possible to save creating a long key list and
to save redundant lookups.
Expanded .update() to look for the most helpful methods first and gradually
work down to a mininum expected interface.
Expanded documentation to be more clear on how to use the class.
recent version from Greg's CVS. I've changed the module docstring,
added a copyright notice, and renamed OptikError to OptParseError.
Still to do are documentation and unit tests.
If you have source files srcdir1/foo.c and srcdir2/foo.c, the
temporary .o for both files is written to build/temp.<platform>/foo.o.
This patch sets strip_dir to false for both calls to object_filename,
so now the object files are written to temp.<platform>/srcdir1/foo.o
and .../srcdir2/foo.o.
2.2 bugfix candidate
present and the caller has not specified a name/password pair. This change
makes it less likely that a lazy coder will expose sensitive information in a
word-readable script.
Also, make the test a bit smarter. If NNTPSERVER is defined in the environment
it will go talk to that server rather than look for a possibly nonexistent
local one named 'news'. Maybe the osession initializer ought to look at
NNTPSERVER rather than requiring a host arg? Must look around and see how
universal this convention is first.
The two long lines have been reflowed differently; hopefully someone on
BeOS can test them. Rev. 1.53 also converted string.atoi() to int(); I've
left that alone.
Added design notes in comments.
Used better variable names.
Eliminated the unsavory "pool[-k:]" which was an aspiring bug (for k==0).
Used if/else to show the two algorithms in parallel style.
Added one more test assertion.
When mwh added extended slicing, strings and unicode became mappings.
Thus, dict was set which prevented an error when doing:
newstr = 'format without a percent' % string_value
This fix raises an exception again when there are no formats
and % with a string value.
Armin Rigo's Draconian but effective fix for
SF bug 453523: list.sort crasher
slightly fiddled to catch more cases of list mutation. The dreaded
internal "immutable list type" is gone! OTOH, if you look at a list
*while* it's being sorted now, it will appear to be empty. Better
than a core dump.
figure out what the code was doing. The fixes were a combination of
closing open files before deletion, opening files in binary mode, and
plain skipping things that can't work on Windows (BaseTest.decompress
uses a process gimmick that doesn't exist on Windows, and, even if it
did, assumes a "bunzip2" executable is on PATH).
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.

where in lax parsing, the first non-header line after a header block
(e.g. the first line not containing a colon, and not a continuation),
can be treated as the first body line, even without the RFC mandated
blank line separator.
rfc822 had this behavior, and I vaguely remember problems with this,
but can't remember details. In any event, all the tests still pass,
so I guess we'll find out. ;/
This patch works by returning the non-header, non-continuation line
from _parseheader() and using that as the first header line prepended
to fp.read() if given. It's usually None.
We use this approach instead of trying to seek/tell the file-like
object.
multipart/digest isn't a message/rfc822. This is legal, but counter
to recommended practice in RFC 2046, $5.1.5.
The fix is to look at the content type after setting the default
content type. If the maintype is then message or multipart, attach
the parsed subobject, otherwise use set_payload() to set the data of
the other object.
The last round boosted "the limit" from 2GB to 4GB. This round gets
rid of the 4GB limit. For files > 4GB, gzip stores just the last 32
bits of the file size, and now we play along with that too. Tested
by hand (on a 6+GB file) on Win2K.
Boosting from 2GB to 4GB was arguably enough "a bugfix". Going beyond
that smells more like "new feature" to me.
blocked in select(), this will raise select.error with errno set to
EINTR. The except clauses correctly ignores this error, but the rest
of the logic will then call read() for all objects in select's *input*
list of read file descriptors. Then when an object's read_handler()
is naive, it will call recv() on its socket, which will raise an
IOError, and then asyncore decides to close the socket. To fix this,
we simply return in this case.
Backport candidate.

I found that my cute test for the slice being empty failed due to
overflow. Fixed, and added simple test (not the above!).
_locale.getdefaultlocale. Guessing a leading underscore was intended,
but don't really understood this stuff (locale looks like Spanish for
the opposite of global to me <wink>).
customize_compiler() now looks at various environment variables and uses
their values to override the configured C compiler/preprocessor/linker
binary and flags.
Fixed the signed/unsigned confusions when dealing with files >= 2GB.
4GB is still a hard limitation of the gzip file format, though.
Testing this was a bitch on Win98SE due to frequent system freezes. It
didn't freeze while running gzip, it kept freezing while trying to *create*
a > 2GB test file! This wasn't Python's doing. I don't know of a
reasonable way to test this functionality in regrtest.py, so I'm not
checking in a test case (a test case would necessarily require creating
a 2GB+ file first, using gzip to zip it, using gzip to unzip it again,
and then compare before-and-after; so >4GB free space would be required,
and a loooong time; I did all this "by hand" once).
Bugfix candidate, I guess.
whether the Distutils being used supports a particularly capability.
(This idea was originally suggested by Juergen Hermann as a method
on the Distribution class. I think it makes more sense as a
function in core.py, and that's what this patch implements.)

arguments, triggering a warning instead of raising an exception. (In
1.5.2/2.0, it will print to stderr.)
Bugfix candidate for all previous versions. This changes behaviour,
but the old behaviour wasn't very useful. If Distutils version X+1
adds a new keyword argument, using the new keyword means your setup.py
file won't work with Distutils version X any more.
