This fixes test_asynchat and test_smtplib failures on OS X. - Issue #9543: Fix regression in socket.py introduced in Python 2.6.6 rc 1 in r83624. Extension Modules ----------------- - Issue #7567: Don't call `setupterm' twice. Tests ----- - Issue #9568: Fix test_urllib2_localnet on OS X 10.3. - Issue #9145: Fix test_coercion failure in refleak runs. - Issue #8433: Fix test_curses failure caused by newer versions of ncurses returning ERR from getmouse() when there are no mouse events available. What's New in Python 2.6.6 rc 1? ================================ *Release date: 2010-08-03* Core and Builtins ----------------- - Issue #6213: Implement getstate() and setstate() methods of utf-8-sig and utf-16 incremental encoders. - Issue #8271: during the decoding of an invalid UTF-8 byte sequence, only the start byte and the continuation byte(s) are now considered invalid, instead of the number of bytes specified by the start byte. E.g.: '\xf1\x80AB'.decode('utf-8', 'replace') now returns u'\ufffdAB' and replaces with U+FFFD only the start byte ('\xf1') and the continuation byte ('\x80') even if '\xf1' is the start byte of a 4-bytes sequence. Previous versions returned a single u'\ufffd'. - Issue #9058: Remove assertions about INT_MAX in UnicodeDecodeError. - Issue #8941: decoding big endian UTF-32 data in UCS-2 builds could crash the interpreter with characters outside the Basic Multilingual Plane (higher than 0x10000). - Issue #8627: Remove bogus "Overriding __cmp__ blocks inheritance of __hash__ in 3.x" warning. Also fix "XXX undetected error" that arises from the "Overriding __eq__ blocks inheritance ..." warning when turned into an exception: in this case the exception simply gets ignored. - Issue #4108: In urllib.robotparser, if there are multiple 'User-agent: *' entries, consider the first one. - Issue #9354: Provide getsockopt() in asyncore's file_wrapper. - In the unicode/str.format(), raise a ValueError when indexes to arguments are too large. - Issue #3798: Write sys.exit() message to sys.stderr to use stderr encoding and error handler, instead of writing to the C stderr file in utf-8 - Issue #7902: When using explicit relative import syntax, don't try implicit relative import semantics. - Issue #7079: Fix a possible crash when closing a file object while using it from another thread. Patch by Daniel Stutzbach. - Issue #1533: fix inconsistency in range function argument processing: any non-float non-integer argument is now converted to an integer (if possible) using its __int__ method. Previously, only small arguments were treated this way; larger arguments (those whose __int__ was outside the range of a C long) would produce a TypeError. - Issue #8417: Raise an OverflowError when an integer larger than sys.maxsize is passed to bytearray. - Issue #8329: Don't return the same lists from select.select when no fds are changed. - Raise a TypeError when trying to delete a T_STRING_INPLACE struct member. - Issue #1583863: An unicode subclass can now override the __unicode__ method. - Issue #7507: Quote "!" in pipes.quote(); it is special to some shells. - Issue #7544: Preallocate thread memory before creating the thread to avoid a fatal error in low memory condition. - Issue #7820: The parser tokenizer restores all bytes in the right if the BOM check fails. - Issue #7072: isspace(0xa0) is true on Mac OS X C-API ----- - Issue #5753: A new C API function, :cfunc:`PySys_SetArgvEx`, allows embedders of the interpreter to set sys.argv without also modifying sys.path. This helps fix `CVE-2008-5983 <http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-5983>`_. Library ------- - Issue #8447: Make distutils.sysconfig follow symlinks in the path to the interpreter executable.

Initial patch by Ezio Melotti. - Issue #5006: Better handling of unicode byte-order marks (BOM) in the io library. This means, for example, that opening an UTF-16 text file in append mode doesn't add a BOM at the end of the file if the file isn't empty. - Issue #3704: cookielib was not properly handling URLs with a / in the parameters. - Issue #4629: getopt raises an error if an argument ends with = whereas getopt doesn't except a value (eg. --help= is rejected if getopt uses ['help='] long options). - Issue #7895: platform.mac_ver() no longer crashes after calling os.fork() - Issue #5395: array.fromfile() would raise a spurious EOFError when an I/O error occurred. Now an IOError is raised instead. Patch by chuck (Jan Hosang). - Issue #1555570: email no longer inserts extra blank lines when a \r\n combo crosses an 8192 byte boundary. - Issue #9164: Ensure sysconfig handles dupblice archs while building on OSX - Issue #7646: The fnmatch pattern cache no longer grows without bound. - Issue #9136: Fix 'dictionary changed size during iteration' RuntimeError produced when profiling the decimal module.

Library ------- - Reverting the changes made in r78432. Discussed in the tracker issue #7540. - Issue #8107: Fixed test_distutils so it doesn't crash when the source directory cannot be found. Extension Modules ----------------- - Issue #7670: sqlite3: Fixed crashes when operating on closed connections. - Issue #8053: logic was inverted on which platforms to run a test on. caused test_thread to fail on Windows. What's New in Python 2.6.5 rc 1? ================================ *Release date: 2010-03-01* Core and Builtins ----------------- - Issue #7309: Fix unchecked attribute access when converting UnicodeEncodeError, UnicodeDecodeError, and UnicodeTranslateError to strings. - Issue #7649: "u'%c' % char" now behaves like "u'%s' % char" and raises a UnicodeDecodeError if 'char' is a byte string that can't be decoded using the default encoding. - Issue #5677: Explicitly forbid write operations on read-only file objects, and read operations on write-only file objects. On Windows, the system C library would return a bogus result; on Solaris, it was possible to crash the interpreter. Patch by Stefan Krah. - Issue #4978: Passing keyword arguments as unicode strings is now allowed. - Issue #7819: Check sys.call_tracing() arguments types. - Issue #7788: Fix an interpreter crash produced by deleting a list slice with very large step value. - Issue #7561: Operations on empty bytearrays (such as `int(bytearray())`) could crash in many places because of the PyByteArray_AS_STRING() macro returning NULL. The macro now returns a statically allocated empty string instead. - Issue #7604: Deleting an unset slotted attribute did not raise an AttributeError. - Issue #7413: Passing '\0' as the separator to datetime.datetime.isoformat() used to drop the time part of the result. - Issue #6108: unicode(exception) and str(exception) should return the same message when only __str__ (and not __unicode__) is overridden in the subclass. - Issue #7491: Metaclass's __cmp__ method was ignored. - Add Py3k warnings for parameter names in parenthesis. - Issue #7362: Give a proper error message for def f((x)=3): pass. - Issue #7085: Fix crash when importing some extensions in a thread on MacOSX 10.6. - Issue #7070: Fix round bug for large odd integer arguments. - Issue #7078: Set struct.__doc__ from _struct.__doc__. - Issue #1722344: threading._shutdown() is now called in Py_Finalize(), which fixes the problem of some exceptions being thrown at shutdown when the interpreter is killed.

Noted by Kan-Ru Chen. - Issue #7970: email.Generator.flatten now correctly flattens message/rfc822 messages parsed by email.Parser.HeaderParser. - Issue #3426: ``os.path.abspath`` now returns unicode when its arg is unicode. - Issue #7835: shelve should no longer produce mysterious warnings during interpreter shutdown. - Issue #4772: Raise a ValueError when an unknown Bluetooth protocol is specified, rather than fall through to AF_PACKET (in the `socket` module). Also, raise ValueError rather than TypeError when an unknown TIPC address type is specified. Patch by Brian Curtin. - Issue #6939: Fix file I/O objects in the `io` module to keep the original file position when calling `truncate()`. It would previously change the file position to the given argument, which goes against the tradition of ftruncate() and other truncation APIs. Patch by Pascal Chambon. - Issue #7773: Fix an UnboundLocalError in platform.linux_distribution() when the release file is empty. - Issue #7748: Since unicode values are supported for some metadata options in Distutils, the DistributionMetadata get_* methods will now return an utf-8 encoded string for them. This ensure that the upload and register commands send the right values to PyPI without any error. - Issue #1670765: Prevent email.generator.Generator from re-wrapping headers in multipart/signed MIME parts, which fixes one of the sources of invalid modifications to such parts by Generator. - Issue #7701: Fix crash in binascii.b2a_uu() in debug mode when given a 1-byte argument. Patch by Victor Stinner. - Issue #3299: Fix possible crash in te _sre module when given bad argument values in debug mode.

Initial patch by Arfrever. - Issue #7071: byte-compilation in Distue. - Issue #7092: Remove py3k warning when importing cPickle. 2to3 handles renaming of `cPickle` to `pickle`. The warning was annoying since there's no alternative to cPickle if you care about performance. Patch by Florent Xicluna. - Issue #745tch by Victor Stinner. - Issue #6511: ZipFile now raises BadZipfile (instead of an IOError) when opening an empty or very small file. - Issue #7552: Removed line feed in the base64 Authorization header in the Distutils upload command to avoid an ers on long passwords. Initial patch by JP St. Pierre. - Issue #7231: urllib2 cannot handle https with proxy requiring auth. Patch by Tatsuhiro Tsujikawa. - Issue #7348: StringIO.StringIO.readline(-1) now acts as if it got no argument like other file objects. - Issue #5949: fixed IMAP4_SSL hang when the IMAP server response is missing proper end-of-line termination. - Fix variations of extending deques: d.extend(d) d.extendleft(d) d+=d - Issue #1923: Fixed the removal of meaningful spaces when PKG-INFO is generated in Distutils. Patch by Stephen Emslie. - Issue #4120: Drop reference to CRT from manifest when building extensions with msvc9compiler. - Issue #7410: deepcopy of itertools.count() erroneously reset the count. - Issue #7403: logging: Fixed possible race condition in lock creation. - Issue #7341: Close the internal file object in the TarFile constructor in case of an error. - Issue #7328: pydoc no longer corrupts sys.path when run with the '-m' switch - Issue #7318: multiprocessing now uses a timeout when it fails to establish a connection with another process, rather than looping endlessly. The default timeout is 20 seconds, which should be amply sufficient for local connections. - Issue #7282: Fix a memory leak when an RLock was used in a thread other than those started through `threading.Thread` (for example, using `thread.start_new_thread()`. - Issue #7264: Fix a possible deadlock when deallocating thread-local objects which are part of a reference cycle. - Issue #7249: Methods of io.BytesIO now allow `long` as well as `int` arguments. - Issue #6665: Fix fnmatch to properly match filenames with newlines in them. - Issue #1008086: Fixed socket.inet_aton() to always return 4 bytes even on LP64 platforms (most 64-bit Linux, bsd, unix systems). - Issue #7246 & Issue #7208: getpass now properly flushes input before reading from stdin so that existing input does not confuse it and lead to incorrect entry or an IOError. It also properly flushes it afterwards to avoid the terminal echoing the input afterwards on OSes such as Solaris. - Issue #7244: itertools.izip_longest() no longer ignores exceptions raised during the formation of an output tuple. - Issue #7233: Fix a number of two-argument Decimal methods to make sure that they accept an int or long as the second argument. Also fix buggy handling of large arguments (those with coefficient longer than the current precision) in shift and rotate. - Issue #7082: When falling back to the MIME 'name' parameter, the correct place to look for it is the Content-Type header. - Issue #7099: Decimal.is_normal now returns True for numbers with exponent larger than emax. - Issue #7205: Fix a possible deadlock when using a BZ2File object from several threads at once. - Issue #7048: Force Decimal.logb to round its result when that result is too large to fit in the current precision. - Issue #1488943: difflib.Differ() doesn't always add hints for tab characters - Issue #5037: Proxy the __unicode__ special method to __unicode__ instead of __str__. - Issue #7481: When a threading.Thread failed to start it would leave the instance stuck in initial state and present in threading.enumerate(). - Issue #1068268: The subprocess module now handles EINTR in internal os.waitpid and os.read system calls where appropriate. Extension Modules ----------------- - Issue #7808: Fix reference leaks in _bsddb and related tests. - Stop providing crtassem.h symbols when compiling with Visual Studio 2010, as msvcr100.dll is not a platform assembly anymore. - Issue #6877: Make it possible to link the readline extension to libedit on OSX. - Expat: Fix DoS via XML document with malformed UTF-8 sequences (CVE_2009_3560). - Issue #7242: On Solaris 9 and earlier calling os.fork() from within a thread could raise an incorrect RuntimeError about not holding the import lock. The import lock is now reinitialized after fork. - Issue #7999: os.setreuid() and os.setregid() would refuse to accept a -1 parameter on some platforms such as OS X. Build ----- - Issue #3920, #7903: Define _BSD_SOURCE on OpenBSD 4.4 through 4.9. - Issue #7661: Allow ctypes to be built from a non-ASCII directory path. Patch by Florent Xicluna. - Issue #7589: Only build the nis module when the correct header files are found. - Switch to OpenSSL 0.9.8l on Windows. - Issue #6603: Change READ_TIMESTAMP macro in ceval.c so that it compiles correctly under gcc on x86-64. This fixes a reported problem with the --with-tsc build on x86-64. - Ensure that it possible to build extensions for the default binary distribution on OSX 10.6 even when the user does not have the 10.4u SDK installed. - Issue #7541: when using ``python-config`` with a framework install the compiler might use the wrong library. Documentation ------------- - Updating `Using Python` documentation to include description of CPython's -J, -U and -X options. - Update python manual page (options -B, -O0, -s, environment variables PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE, PYTHONNOUSERSITE). Tests ----- - issue #7728: test_timeout was changed to use test_support.bind_port instead of a hard coded port. - Issue #7498: test_multiprocessing now uses test_support.find_unused_port instead of a hardcoded port number in test_rapid_restart. - Issue #7431: use TESTFN in test_linecache instead of trying to create a file in the Lib/test directory, which might be read-only for the user running the tests. - Issue #7324: add a sanity check to regrtest argument parsing to catch the case of an option with no handler. - Issue #7295: Do not use a hardcoded file name in test_tarfile. - Issue #7270: Add some dedicated unit tests for multi-thread synchronization primitives such as Lock, RLock, Condition, Event and Semaphore. - Issue #7055: test___all__ now greedily detects all modules which have an __all__ attribute, rather than using a hardcoded and incomplete list.
