| Sorry, this list does not claim completeness. If I fixed a bug |
| immediately upon receiving the first complaint I usually did not |
| nother to make an entry in this file, unless it was a serious bug |
| (core dump or infinite loop). |
| |
| ==> Status indicators: (-) not fixed; (*) fixed; (?) don't know what to do. |
| |
| ====================================================================== |
| BUGS found in 1.0.3 and not yet fixed |
| ------------------------------------- |
| |
| (-) print_error raises and then masks an error if softspace is not |
| defined (can't reproduce this one?) |
| |
| (*) Syntax errors are reported in a silly way if multi-line tokens are |
| involved. |
| |
| (*) SyntaxError exception for compile('...') are reported wrongly |
| (lineno is always zero and offset is offset into the whole string). |
| |
| (*) freeze script needs major rewrite to cope with multiple extensions |
| (Jack seems to have fixed it now -- where is it?) |
| |
| (*) various memory leaks (see purify report from anthony.baxter@aaii.oz.au) |
| (several leaks fixed anyway :-) |
| |
| BUGS found in 1.0.3 and fixed in 1.1 |
| ------------------------------------ |
| |
| (*) unwanted entries in stack trace if err_clear() clears an error |
| that also set a stack trace |
| |
| (*) i, x[i] = a, b assigns b to x[a] rather than to x[i] as expected |
| (documented with a warning in ref6.tex!) |
| |
| (*) etags no longer supports -t flag |
| |
| (*) compile.c:com_argdefs() references unalloc'ed memory for def |
| f(a=1,): ... |
| |
| (*) If you have a python binary in your path like |
| /ufs/guido/bin/sgi/python then the default prefix option computed by |
| the configure script is bogus! |
| |
| (*) Make rule for making lib*.a should remove the lib*.a file first. |
| |
| (*) vars() error message is wrong (copied from dir() obviously). |
| |
| (*) socket.gethostname() is undocumented. |
| |
| (*) rfc822.py: getfirst* dies when multiple headers occur |
| |
| (*) urllib caching is wrong (should use date from Expires header) |
| |
| (*) On a related matter: regexpr.c still has two malloc()s the results |
| of which are not tested for being NULL (lines 1253 and 1530). There |
| are also some in rgbimagemodule.c. Am I overlooking something or is |
| this a crasher? |
| |
| (*) strop.rindex('abc', '') returns 0 instead of 3 |
| |
| (*) sunaudiodevmodule.o is too long! |
| |
| (*) toplevel README needs new text on PC and Mac builds |
| |
| (*) long(0x80000000) has wrong value! |
| |
| ====================================================================== |
| Bugs found in 1.0.2 and not yet fixed |
| ------------------------------------- |
| |
| (?) compiler warnings about argument type of uname() on ULTRIX |
| machines (don't know what to do about it) |
| |
| (?) syntax error for interactive input prints garbage instead of last |
| source line on some systems (e.g. AIX) (impossible to test/reproduce) |
| !!! I think I've found this one -- a missing INCREF in print_error! |
| |
| (?) (maybe) a bad .pyc file (with old magic number) causes the .py |
| file to be ignored |
| |
| (?) Sunos4.0.2 / 386 configure bugs: |
| - timelocal instead of mktime |
| - unistd.h doesn't declare some functions |
| (don't know what to do about this) |
| |
| Bugs found in 1.0.2 and fixed in 1.0.3 |
| -------------------------------------- |
| |
| (*) nasty bug in string formatting (see test_types.py, search for %) |
| |
| (*) if a triple-quoted string ends in a quote followed by a newline |
| (followed immediately by the terminating 3 quotes) then a syntax error |
| or system error ensues |
| |
| (*) bug in socket.listen: clipping backlog to >= 1 doesn't work |
| |
| (*) two bogus XDEL's in Modules/regexmodule.reg_dealloc() |
| |
| (*) Parser/myreadline.my_fgets: #endif EINTR misplaced |
| |
| (*) new IP address for ftp.cwi.nl !!! |
| |
| (*) typing vars() to interactive prompt runs into infinite loop |
| because of '_' |
| |
| (*) tokenizer/tok_nextc() runs into infinite loop when file does not |
| end in linefeed |
| |
| (*) Sunos4.0.2 / 386 configure bugs: |
| (*) - use size_t at some places without including sys/types.h |
| (*) - missing clock_t |
| (*) - uses SEEK_SET in some places that don't include unistd.h |
| |
| ====================================================================== |
| Bugs found in 1.0.1 and not yet fixed |
| ------------------------------------- |
| |
| (?) modsupport.c(vmkvalue): on systems where va_list is an array, the |
| calls to do_mkvalue and do_mktuple don't want an "&" before va. |
| (don't know what to do about this) |
| |
| (?) threads are slow on Solaris 2 |
| (so what?) |
| |
| (*) threads cause myreadline.c's readline() to think it sees an EOF. |
| (I *think* I've fixed this, by testing for EINTR) |
| |
| (?) min() on PC version generates wrong result (i.e. same as max()) |
| [this happens on SoftPC -- don't know about other systems] |
| (can't find the reason -- may be SoftPC bug) |
| |
| (*) flp.py cache bug: if the cache only contains one form, asking for |
| all forms returns only the cached form |
| |
| Bugs found in 1.0.1 and fixed in 1.0.2 |
| -------------------------------------- |
| |
| (*) core dump when parser.parsefile() called |
| |
| (*) man page contains a mess before -d option |

| |
| (*) Lib/filewin.py belongs in Lib/stdwin |
| |
| (*) lib and man install targets don't use $(srcdir) |

| (*) The FAQ still references misc/EXTENDING and misc/DYNLOAD etc |
| |
| (*) The FAQ still describes how to work around a problem in 0.9.9 exec() |
| |

| |

| (*) dynamic loading on sunos 4.1.3 must call dlopen(..., 1) |
