That's why I culled down my large application to a small Python script which exhibited the bug and which I submitted to the list, along with my cygcheck -srv and the error messages that Python gave me. > Besides submitting a patch, a minimal C test case is the best way > to go. ??? A minimal C test case for a python bug... I'm confused. I will submit my tbp (in a different form) to the official python release for inclusion in their self-tests, and hopefully that'll prevent _this_ bug from showing up further, whether on Cygwin or some other platform... --Doug -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
