2020-12-07python*: Revert shm_open workaround now it's fixed in mksandboxnia1-5/+1
2020-12-06python*: Disable runtime configure test on sem_getvalue behaviournia1-1/+2
Like the other test, because /dev/shm isn't available in the build environment doesn't mean it won't be available on the destination machine for the packages.
2020-12-06python*: Avoid configure test for POSIX semaphores on Linux.nia1-1/+4
This attempts to build and run a program that uses POSIX semaphores. This fails in a pbulk sandbox that doesn't contain /dev/shm, resulting in a broken package where the idea that the platform doesn't support POSIX semaphores is baked in forever. In newer Python versions, this means Python doesn't even build properly. XXX: We might want to avoid it on other platforms too...

1. LD_LIBRARY_PATH does _not_ take precedence over DT_RPATH (e.g. Linux) 2. A previous libpython with the same major.minor is already installed (e.g. a previous version of this package) hold, the built python will be linked with the installed libpython, causing it to report an old teeny version in sys.version_info while staging the install. Then "make package" fails with PLIST mismatches for {,Pattern}Grammar.*.pickle. pkgsrc knows which version we're building. Pass that down instead. For platforms that weren't having this problem, no functional change intended. For platforms that were, this simply restores "make package", so no PKGREVISION bump.

2020-04-20python27: updated to 2.7.18adam3-9/+8
Python 2.7.18, the last release of Python 2 The CPython core developers are pleased to announce the immediate availability of Python 2.7.18. Python 2.7.18 is the last Python 2.7 release and therefore the last Python 2 release. It's time for the CPython community to say a fond but firm farewell to Python 2. Download this unique, commemorative Python release on python.org. Python 2.7 has been under active development since the release of Python 2.6, more than 11 years ago. Over all those years, CPython's core developers and contributors sedulously applied bug fixes to the 2.7 branch, no small task as the Python 2 and 3 branches diverged. There were large changes midway through Python 2.7's life such as PEP 466's feature backports to the ssl module and hash randomization. Traditionally, these features would never have been added to a branch in maintenance mode, but exceptions were made to keep Python 2 users secure. Thank you to CPython's community for such dedication. Python 2.7 was lucky to have the services of two generations of binary builders and operating system experts, Martin von Löwis and Steve Dower for Windows, and Ronald Oussoren and Ned Deily for macOS. The reason we provided binary Python 2.7 releases for macOS 10.9, an operating system obsoleted by Apple 4 years ago, or why the "Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7" exists is the dedication of these individuals. Python 3 would be nowhere without the dedication of the wider community. Library maintainers followed CPython by maintaining Python 2 support for many years but also threw their weight behind the Python 3 statement. Linux distributors chased Python 2 out of their archives. Users migrated hundreds of millions of lines of code, developed porting guides, and kept Python 2 in their brain while Python 3 gained 10 years of improvements. Finally, thank you to GvR for creating Python 0.9, 1, 2, and 3. Long live Python 3+!

2.7.17: Escape the server title of :class:`DocXMLRPCServer.DocXMLRPCServer` when rendering the document page as HTML. Update vendorized expat library version to 2.2.8, which resolves CVE-2019-15903. Updated OpenSSL to 1.0.2s in Windows installer Don't set cookie for a request when the request path is a prefix match of the cookie's path attribute but doesn't end with "/". Don't send cookies of domain A without Domain attribute to domain B when domain A is a suffix match of domain B while using a cookiejar with :class:`cookielib.DefaultCookiePolicy` policy. Fix parsing of invalid email addresses with more than one ``@`` (e.g. a@b@c.com.) to not return the part before 2nd ``@`` as valid email address. Fixes mishandling of pre-normalization characters in urlsplit(). Address CVE-2019-9740 by disallowing URL paths with embedded whitespace or control characters through into the underlying http client request. Such potentially malicious header injection URLs now cause an httplib.InvalidURL exception to be raised. Changes urlsplit() to raise ValueError when the URL contains characters that decompose under IDNA encoding (NFKC-normalization) into characters that affect how the URL is parsed. CVE-2019-9948: Avoid file reading by disallowing ``local-file://`` and ``local_file://`` URL schemes in :func:`urllib.urlopen`, :meth:`urllib.URLopener.open` and :meth:`urllib.URLopener.retrieve`. Fix race in PyThread_release_lock that was leading to memory corruption and deadlocks. The fix applies to POSIX systems where Python locks are implemented with mutex and condition variable because POSIX semaphores are either not provided, or are known to be broken. One particular example of such system is macOS. valgrind: suppress a false alarm in memory leak checks. _PyWarnings_Init() only allocates memory once at startup but it is not released at exit. Ignore this issue to be able to catch other bugs more easily. Fix possible overflow in ``wrap_lenfunc()`` when ``sizeof(long) < sizeof(Py_ssize_t)`` (e.g., 64-bit Windows). pymalloc returns memory blocks aligned by 16 bytes, instead of 8 bytes, on 64-bit platforms to conform x86-64 ABI. Recent compilers assume this alignment more often. Fix signed integer overflow in _ctypes.c's ``PyCArrayType_new()``. Fix a possible double ``PyMem_FREE()`` due to tokenizer.c's ``tok_nextc()``. Fix a possible reference leak in :func:`itertools.count`. PyOS_StdioReadline() no longer leaks memory when realloc() fails. Fix an unlikely memory leak on conversion from string to float in the function ``_Py_dg_strtod()`` used by ``float(str)``, ``complex(str)``, :func:`pickle.load`, :func:`marshal.load`, etc. Fix use of uninitialized memory in cPickle when reading a truncated pickle from a file object. Clarified Doc string for builtin filter function. 2nd Argument can be any iterable. Allow the rare code that wants to send invalid http requests from the `http.client` library a way to do so. The fixes for bpo-30458 led to breakage for some projects that were relying on this ability to test their own behavior in the face of bad requests. Fix a memory leak in comparison of :class:`sqlite3.Row` objects. _hashlib no longer calls obsolete OpenSSL initialization function with OpenSSL 1.1.0+. Fixed a crash in the :func:`tee` iterator when re-enter it. RuntimeError is now raised in this case. Fix C compiler warning caused by distutils.ccompiler.CCompiler.has_function. Fix file descriptors transfer in multiprocessing on FreeBSD: use ``CMSG_SPACE()`` rather than ``CMSG_LEN()``; see :rfc:`3542`. Update wheels bundled with ensurepip (pip 19.2.3 and setuptools 41.2.0) Update vendorized expat version to 2.2.7. :func:`urlparse.urlsplit` error message for invalid ``netloc`` according to NFKC normalization is now a :class:`str` string, rather than a :class:`unicode` string, to prevent error when displaying the error. :meth:`msilib.Directory.start_component()` no longer fails if *keyfile* is not ``None``. Rename the :meth:`test_ascii_replace` to :meth:`test_ascii_strict`. Fix :mod:`distutils.sysconfig` if :data:`sys.executable` is ``None`` or an empty string: use :func:`os.getcwd` to initialize ``project_base``. Fix also the distutils build command: don't use :data:`sys.executable` if it is ``None`` or an empty string. Fix buffer overflow in :meth:`~socket.socket.send` and :meth:`~socket.socket.sendall` methods of :func:`socket.socket` for data larger than 2 GiB. Fix a possible reference leak in the json module. Fix a possible reference leak in the io module. Fix two possible reference leaks in the hotshot module. Fix ``CFLAGS`` in ``customize_compiler()`` of ``distutils.sysconfig``: when the ``CFLAGS`` environment variable is defined, don't override ``CFLAGS`` variable with the ``OPT`` variable anymore. Update ensurepip to install pip 19.0.3 and setuptools 40.8.0. Fix linuxaudiodev.linux_audio_device() error handling: close the internal file descriptor if it fails to open the device. Fix memory leak in ctypes POINTER handling of large values. Fix two unlikely reference leaks in _hashopenssl. The leaks only occur in out-of-memory cases. Resolve potential name clash with libm's sinpi(). Fix ``setup.py check --restructuredtext`` for files containing ``include`` directives. Fix PyList_GetItem index description to include 0. Replace the dead link to the Tkinter 8.5 reference by John Shipman, New Mexico Tech, with a link to the archive.org copy. Improve the examples in the "How do I convert a number to string?" question of the "Programming" section of the FAQ. Fix documentation build for sphinx<1.6. Explicitly set master_doc variable in conf.py for compliance with Sphinx 2.0 Add glossary entry for 'magic method'. Fix test_wsgiref.testEnviron() to no longer depend on the environment variables (don't fail if "X" variable is set). Add --cleanup option to python3 -m test to remove ``test_python_*`` directories of previous failed jobs. Add "make cleantest" to run ``python3 -m test --cleanup``. test_gdb no longer fails if it gets an "unexpected" message on stderr: it now ignores stderr. The purpose of test_gdb is to test that python-gdb.py commands work as expected, not to test gdb. Update Lib/test/selfsigned_pythontestdotnet.pem to match self-signed.pythontest.net's new TLS certificate. Skip specific nntplib and ssl networking tests when they would otherwise fail due to a modern OS or distro with a default OpenSSL policy of rejecting connections to servers with weak certificates or disabling TLS below TLSv1.2. Fix reference leak hunting in regrtest: compute also deltas (of reference count and file descriptor count) during warmup, to ensure that everything is initialized before starting to hunt reference leaks. test_posix.PosixUidGidTests: add tests for invalid uid/gid type (str). Add test.support.TEST_HTTP_URL and replace references of http://www.example.com by this new constant. Avoid test_ttk_guionly ComboboxTest failure with macOS Cocoa Tk. Re-enable missing widget testcases in test_ttk_guionly. Fix ``test_default_ecdh_curve`` when TLSv1.3 is enabled by default. In Solaris family, we must be sure to use ``-D_REENTRANT``. Fix detection of the bind_textdomain_codeset function for building gettext support into the locale module. ``make tags`` and ``make TAGS`` now also parse ``Modules/_io/*.c`` and ``Modules/_io/*.h``. Fix SSL module build with OpenSSL 1.1.0 Updates bundled OpenSSL to 1.0.2t Include the ``FORMAT_MESSAGE_IGNORE_INSERTS`` flag in ``FormatMessageW()`` calls. Update Windows builds to use SQLite 3.28.0. Correctly handle string length in ``msilib.SummaryInfo.GetProperty()`` to prevent it from truncating the last character. Updated OpenSSL to 1.0.2t in macOS installer for 2.7.x. When building 2.7 on macOS without system header files installed in ``/usr/include``, a few extension modules dependent on system-supplied third-party libraries were not being built, most notably zlib. Update macOS installer to use SQLite 3.28.0. Updated OpenSSL to 1.0.2s in macOS installer. Support building Python on macOS without /usr/include installed. As of macOS 10.14, system header files are only available within an SDK provided by either the Command Line Tools or the Xcode app. Properly 'attach' search dialogs to their main window so that they behave like other dialogs and do not get hidden behind their main window. When saving a file, call os.fsync() so bits are flushed to e.g. USB drive. 2to3 now works when run from a zipped standard library. Fix the argument handling in Tools/scripts/lll.py. Fix the cast on error in :c:func:`PyLong_AsUnsignedLongLongMask()`.
2019-04-25python: Don't install nis_failed.so if no yp headersroy2-6/+3
Because python won't even try to build it. You only see nis_failed.so if there is an error building it, when it wanted to build it, and that should be fixed accordingly. In a nutshell, if the yp headers are installed, python will build the nis module, otherwise it won't. On netbsd systems at least, if you have the yp headers installed and subsequently re-install over the top with MKYP=no you get into the state where the headers are installed, but the functions are no longer in libc. This is an error with *your* system - either rebuild with MKYP=yes OR remove the yp headers from include/rpc and include/rpcsvc. Follow on fix for PR pkg/53673.

2018-05-19update python27 by one teeny, fixing 3 vulnerabilities.spz5-112/+64
Upstream changelog, slightly reordered: Security -------- - bpo-31530: Fixed crashes when iterating over a file on multiple threads. This resolves CVE-2018-1000030. - bpo-32997: A regex in fpformat was vulnerable to catastrophic backtracking. This regex was a potential DOS vector (REDOS). Based on typical uses of fpformat the risk seems low. The regex has been refactored and is now safe. Patch by Jamie Davis. - bpo-32981: Regexes in difflib and poplib were vulnerable to catastrophic backtracking. These regexes formed potential DOS vectors (REDOS). They have been refactored. This resolves CVE-2018-1060 and CVE-2018-1061. Patch by Jamie Davis. - bpo-31339: Rewrite time.asctime() and time.ctime(). Backport and adapt the _asctime() function from the master branch to not depend on the implementation of asctime() and ctime() from the external C library. This change fixes a bug when Python is run using the musl C library. - bpo-30730: Prevent environment variables injection in subprocess on Windows. Prevent passing other environment variables and command arguments. - bpo-30694: Upgrade expat copy from 2.2.0 to 2.2.1 to get fixes of multiple security vulnerabilities including: CVE-2017-9233 (External entity infinite loop DoS), CVE-2016-9063 (Integer overflow, re-fix), CVE-2016-0718 (Fix regression bugs from 2.2.0's fix to CVE-2016-0718) and CVE-2012-0876 (Counter hash flooding with SipHash). Note: the CVE-2016-5300 (Use os- specific entropy sources like getrandom) doesn't impact Python, since Python already gets entropy from the OS to set the expat secret using ``XML_SetHashSalt()``. - bpo-30500: Fix urllib.splithost() to correctly parse fragments. For example, ``splithost('//127.0.0.1#@evil.com/')`` now correctly returns the ``127.0.0.1`` host, instead of treating ``@evil.com`` as the host in an authentification (``login@host``). - bpo-29591: Update expat copy from 2.1.1 to 2.2.0 to get fixes of CVE-2016-0718 and CVE-2016-4472. See https://sourceforge.net/p/expat/bugs/537/ for more information. Core and Builtins ----------------- - bpo-33374: Tweak the definition of PyGC_Head, so compilers do not believe it is always 16-byte aligned on x86. This prevents crashes with more aggressive optimizations present in GCC 8. - bpo-33026: Fixed jumping out of "with" block by setting f_lineno. - bpo-17288: Prevent jumps from 'return' and 'exception' trace events. - bpo-18533: ``repr()`` on a dict containing its own ``viewvalues()`` or ``viewitems()`` no longer raises ``RuntimeError``. Instead, use ``...``, as for other recursive structures. Patch by Ben North. - bpo-10544: Yield expressions are now deprecated in comprehensions and generator expressions when checking Python 3 compatibility. They are still permitted in the definition of the outermost iterable, as that is evaluated directly in the enclosing scope. - bpo-32137: The repr of deeply nested dict now raises a RecursionError instead of crashing due to a stack overflow. - bpo-20047: Bytearray methods partition() and rpartition() now accept only bytes-like objects as separator, as documented. In particular they now raise TypeError rather of returning a bogus result when an integer is passed as a separator. - bpo-31733: Add a new PYTHONSHOWREFCOUNT environment variable. In debug mode, Python now only print the total reference count if PYTHONSHOWREFCOUNT is set. - bpo-31692: Add a new PYTHONSHOWALLOCCOUNT environment variable. When Python is compiled with COUNT_ALLOCS, PYTHONSHOWALLOCCOUNT now has to be set to dump allocation counts into stderr on shutdown. Moreover, allocations statistics are now dumped into stderr rather than stdout. - bpo-31478: Prevent unwanted behavior in `_random.Random.seed()` in case the argument has a bad ``__abs__()`` method. Patch by Oren Milman. - bpo-31490: Fix an assertion failure in `ctypes` class definition, in case the class has an attribute whose name is specified in ``_anonymous_`` but not in ``_fields_``. Patch by Oren Milman. - bpo-31411: Raise a TypeError instead of SystemError in case warnings.onceregistry is not a dictionary. Patch by Oren Milman. - bpo-31343: Include sys/sysmacros.h for major(), minor(), and makedev(). GNU C libray plans to remove the functions from sys/types.h. - bpo-31311: Fix a crash in the ``__setstate__()`` method of `ctypes._CData`, in case of a bad ``__dict__``. Patch by Oren Milman. - bpo-31243: Fix a crash in some methods of `io.TextIOWrapper`, when the decoder's state is invalid. Patch by Oren Milman. - bpo-31095: Fix potential crash during GC caused by ``tp_dealloc`` which doesn't call ``PyObject_GC_UnTrack()``. - bpo-30657: Fixed possible integer overflow in PyString_DecodeEscape. Patch by Jay Bosamiya. - bpo-27945: Fixed various segfaults with dict when input collections are mutated during searching, inserting or comparing. Based on patches by Duane Griffin and Tim Mitchell. - bpo-25794: Fixed type.__setattr__() and type.__delattr__() for non- interned or unicode attribute names. Based on patch by Eryk Sun. - bpo-29935: Fixed error messages in the index() method of tuple and list when pass indices of wrong type. - bpo-28598: Support __rmod__ for subclasses of str being called before str.__mod__. Patch by Martijn Pieters. - bpo-29602: Fix incorrect handling of signed zeros in complex constructor for complex subclasses and for inputs having a __complex__ method. Patch by Serhiy Storchaka. - bpo-29347: Fixed possibly dereferencing undefined pointers when creating weakref objects. - bpo-14376: Allow sys.exit to accept longs as well as ints. Patch by Gareth Rees. - bpo-29028: Fixed possible use-after-free bugs in the subscription of the buffer object with custom index object. - bpo-29145: Fix overflow checks in string, bytearray and unicode. Patch by jan matejek and Xiang Zhang. - bpo-28932: Do not include <sys/random.h> if it does not exist. Library ------- - bpo-33096: Allow ttk.Treeview.insert to insert iid that has a false boolean value. Note iid=0 and iid=False would be same. Patch by Garvit Khatri. - bpo-33127: The ssl module now compiles with LibreSSL 2.7.1. - bpo-30622: The ssl module now detects missing NPN support in LibreSSL. - bpo-21060: Rewrite confusing message from setup.py upload from "No dist file created in earlier command" to the more helpful "Must create and upload files in one command". - bpo-30157: Fixed guessing quote and delimiter in csv.Sniffer.sniff() when only the last field is quoted. Patch by Jake Davis. - bpo-32647: The ctypes module used to depend on indirect linking for dlopen. The shared extension is now explicitly linked against libdl on platforms with dl. - bpo-32304: distutils' upload command no longer corrupts tar files ending with a CR byte, and no longer tries to convert CR to CRLF in any of the upload text fields. - bpo-31848: Fix the error handling in Aifc_read.initfp() when the SSND chunk is not found. Patch by Zackery Spytz. - bpo-32521: The nis module is now compatible with new libnsl and headers location. - bpo-32539: Fix ``OSError`` for ``os.listdir`` with deep paths (starting with ``\\?\``) on windows. Patch by Anthony Sottile. - bpo-32521: glibc has removed Sun RPC. Use replacement libtirpc headers and library in nis module. - bpo-18035: ``telnetlib``: ``select.error`` doesn't have an ``errno`` attribute. Patch by Segev Finer. - bpo-32185: The SSL module no longer sends IP addresses in SNI TLS extension on platforms with OpenSSL 1.0.2+ or inet_pton. - bpo-32186: Creating io.FileIO() and builtin file() objects now release the GIL when checking the file descriptor. io.FileIO.readall(), io.FileIO.read(), and file.read() now release the GIL when getting the file size. Fixed hang of all threads with inaccessible NFS server. Patch by Nir Soffer. - bpo-32110: ``codecs.StreamReader.read(n)`` now returns not more than *n* characters/bytes for non-negative *n*. This makes it compatible with ``read()`` methods of other file-like objects. - bpo-21149: Silence a `'NoneType' object is not callable` in `_removeHandlerRef` error that could happen when a logging Handler is destroyed as part of cyclic garbage collection during process shutdown. - bpo-31764: Prevent a crash in ``sqlite3.Cursor.close()`` in case the ``Cursor`` object is uninitialized. Patch by Oren Milman. - bpo-31955: Fix CCompiler.set_executable() of distutils to handle properly Unicode strings. - bpo-9678: Fixed determining the MAC address in the uuid module: * Using ifconfig on NetBSD and OpenBSD. * Using arp on Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD. Based on patch by Takayuki Shimizukawa. - bpo-30057: Fix potential missed signal in signal.signal(). - bpo-31927: Fixed reading arbitrary data when parse a AF_BLUETOOTH address on NetBSD and DragonFly BSD. - bpo-27666: Fixed stack corruption in curses.box() and curses.ungetmouse() when the size of types chtype or mmask_t is less than the size of C long. curses.box() now accepts characters as arguments. Based on patch by Steve Fink. - bpo-25720: Fix the method for checking pad state of curses WINDOW. Patch by Masayuki Yamamoto. - bpo-31893: Fixed the layout of the kqueue_event structure on OpenBSD and NetBSD. Fixed the comparison of the kqueue_event objects. - bpo-31891: Fixed building the curses module on NetBSD. - bpo-30058: Fixed buffer overflow in select.kqueue.control(). - bpo-31770: Prevent a crash when calling the ``__init__()`` method of a ``sqlite3.Cursor`` object more than once. Patch by Oren Milman. - bpo-31728: Prevent crashes in `_elementtree` due to unsafe cleanup of `Element.text` and `Element.tail`.

Add a new _testcapi._read_null() function to crash Python in a reliable way on s390x. On s390x, ctypes.string_at(0) returns an empty string rather than crashing. - bpo-31518: Debian Unstable has disabled TLS 1.0 and 1.1 for SSLv23_METHOD(). Change TLS/SSL protocol of some tests to PROTOCOL_TLS or PROTOCOL_TLSv1_2 to make them pass on Debian. - bpo-25674: Remove sha256.tbs-internet.com ssl test - bpo-11790: Fix sporadic failures in test_multiprocessing.WithProcessesTestCondition. - bpo-30236: Backported test.regrtest options -m/--match and -G/--failfast from Python 3. - bpo-30223: To unify running tests in Python 2.7 and Python 3, the test package can be run as a script. This is equivalent to running the test.regrtest module as a script. - bpo-30207: To simplify backports from Python 3, the test.test_support module was converted into a package and renamed to test.support. The test.script_helper module was moved into the test.support package. Names test.test_support and test.script_helper are left as aliases to test.support and test.support.script_helper. - bpo-30197: Enhanced function swap_attr() in the test.test_support module. It now works when delete replaced attribute inside the with statement. The old value of the attribute (or None if it doesn't exist) now will be assigned to the target of the "as" clause, if there is one. Also backported function swap_item(). - bpo-28087: Skip test_asyncore and test_eintr poll failures on macOS. Skip some tests of select.poll when running on macOS due to unresolved issues with the underlying system poll function on some macOS versions. - bpo-15083: Convert ElementTree doctests to unittests. Build ----- - bpo-33163: Upgrade pip to 9.0.3 and setuptools to v39.0.1. - bpo-32616: Disable computed gotos by default for clang < 5.0.

Replace ``make touch`` with ``make regen-all``. - bpo-27593: sys.version and the platform module python_build(), python_branch(), and python_revision() functions now use git information rather than hg when building from a repo. - bpo-29643: Fix ``--enable-optimization`` configure option didn't work. - bpo-29572: Update Windows build and OS X installers to use OpenSSL 1.0.2k. - bpo-28768: Fix implicit declaration of function _setmode. Patch by Masayuki Yamamoto Windows ------- - bpo-33184: Update Windows build to use OpenSSL 1.0.2o. - bpo-32903: Fix a memory leak in os.chdir() on Windows if the current directory is set to a UNC path. - bpo-30855: Bump Tcl/Tk to 8.5.19. - bpo-30450: Pull build dependencies from GitHub rather than svn.python.org. macOS ----- - bpo-32726: Provide an additional, more modern macOS installer variant that supports macOS 10.9+ systems in 64-bit mode only. Upgrade the supplied third-party libraries to OpenSSL 1.0.2n and SQLite 3.22.0. The 10.9+ installer now supplies its own private copy of Tcl/Tk 8.6.8. - bpo-24414: Default macOS deployment target is now set by ``configure`` to the build system's OS version (as is done by Python 3), not ``10.4``; override with, for example, ``./configure MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.4``. - bpo-17128: All 2.7 macOS installer variants now supply their own version of ``OpenSSL 1.0.2``; the Apple-supplied SSL libraries and root certificates are not longer used. The ``Installer Certificate`` command in ``/Applications/Python 2.7`` may be used to download and install a default set of root certificates from the third-party ``certifi`` package. - bpo-11485: python.org macOS Pythons no longer supply a default SDK value (e.g. ``-isysroot /``) or specific compiler version default (e.g. ``gcc-4.2``) when building extension modules. Use ``CC``, ``SDKROOT``, and ``DEVELOPER_DIR`` environment variables to override compilers or to use an SDK. See Apple's ``xcrun`` man page for more info. - bpo-33184: Update macOS installer build to use OpenSSL 1.0.2o. Tools/Demos ----------- - bpo-31920: Fixed handling directories as arguments in the ``pygettext`` script. Based on patch by Oleg Krasnikov. - bpo-30109: Fixed Tools/scripts/reindent.py for non-ASCII files. It now processes files as binary streams. This also fixes "make reindent". - bpo-24960: 2to3 and lib2to3 can now read pickled grammar files using pkgutil.get_data() rather than probing the filesystem. This lets 2to3 and lib2to3 work when run from a zipfile. C API ----- - bpo-20891: Fix PyGILState_Ensure(). When PyGILState_Ensure() is called in a non-Python thread before PyEval_InitThreads(), only call PyEval_InitThreads() after calling PyThreadState_New() to fix a crash. - bpo-31626: When Python is built in debug mode, the memory debug hooks now fail with a fatal error if realloc() fails to shrink a memory block, because the debug hook just erased freed bytes without keeping a copy of them.

2016-07-23Fix dlopen(3) calls in _ctypes.so for X11BASE librarieskamil3-16/+35
A Python code can dynamically load shared libraries and it's wrapped with a plain dlopen(3) call. The holder of this interface (_ctypes module) without rpath set to X11BASE cannot detect libs like 'GL'. This might be the last step to fix issues with running GUI Python applications on NetBSD. Bump PKGREVISION.
2016-07-23Fixing find_library() on POSIX-like (excluding Darwin) systems.kamil1-2/+20
This isn't addressing Python's wrapper for dlopen(3). This possibily addresses mostly NetBSD as other popular OSes have ldconfig. Testing commands: - before applying the patch >>> from ctypes.util import find_library >>> find_library("m") 'libm.so.0' >>> find_library("crypto") 'libcrypto.so.11' >>> find_library("GL") >>> find_library("curl") - after applying the patch >>> from ctypes.util import find_library >>> find_library("m") 'libm.so.0' >>> find_library("crypto") 'libcrypto.so.11' >>> find_library("GL") 'libGL.so.2' >>> find_library("curl") 'libcurl.so.4' This patch doesn't solve the case of custom dirs like $PREFIX/qt5/lib. However it's solving most common cases of using this call. A possible solution is to parse the output "pkg_info -La"... however it's very slow. In other words a cache with libraries might be needed to handle it efficiently. Bump PKGREVISION.

2016-07-02Changes 2.7.2:adam5-31/+34
Core and Builtins ----------------- - Issue 20041: Fixed TypeError when frame.f_trace is set to None. Patch by Xavier de Gaye. - Issue 25702: A --with-lto configure option has been added that will enable link time optimizations at build time during a make profile-opt. Some compilers and toolchains are known to not produce stable code when using LTO, be sure to test things thoroughly before relying on it. It can provide a few % speed up over profile-opt alone. - Issue 26168: Fixed possible refleaks in failing Py_BuildValue() with the "N" format unit. - Issue 27039: Fixed bytearray.remove() for values greater than 127.

NOTE: A direct call of super.__init__ is not endorsed! - Issue 13410: Fixed a bug in PyUnicode_Format where it failed to properly ignore errors from a __int__() method. - Issue 26494: Fixed crash on iterating exhausting iterators. Affected classes are generic sequence iterators, iterators of bytearray, list, tuple, set, frozenset, dict, OrderedDict and corresponding views. - Issue 26581: If coding cookie is specified multiple times on a line in Python source code file, only the first one is taken to account. - Issue 22836: Ensure exception reports from PyErr_Display() and PyErr_WriteUnraisable() are sensible even when formatting them produces secondary errors. This affects the reports produced by sys.__excepthook__() and when __del__() raises an exception. - Issue 22847: Improve method cache efficiency. - Issue 25843: When compiling code, don't merge constants if they are equal but have a different types. For example, ``f1, f2 = lambda: 1, lambda: 1.0`` is now correctly compiled to two different functions: ``f1()`` returns ``1`` (``int``) and ``f2()`` returns ``1.0`` (``int``), even if ``1`` and ``1.0`` are equal. - Issue 22995: [UPDATE] Remove the one of the pickleability tests in _PyObject_GetState() due to regressions observed in Cython-based projects. - Issue 25961: Disallowed null characters in the type name. - Issue 22995: Instances of extension types with a state that aren't subclasses of list or dict and haven't implemented any pickle-related methods (__reduce__, __reduce_ex__, __getnewargs__, __getnewargs_ex__, or __getstate__), can no longer be pickled. Including memoryview. - Issue 20440: Massive replacing unsafe attribute setting code with special macro Py_SETREF. - Issue 25421: __sizeof__ methods of builtin types now use dynamic basic size. This allows sys.getsize() to work correctly with their subclasses with __slots__ defined. - Issue 19543: Added Py3k warning for decoding unicode. - Issue 24097: Fixed crash in object.__reduce__() if slot name is freed inside __getattr__. - Issue 24731: Fixed crash on converting objects with special methods __str__, __trunc__, and __float__ returning instances of subclasses of str, long, and float to subclasses of str, long, and float correspondingly. - Issue 26478: Fix semantic bugs when using binary operators with dictionary views and tuples. - Issue 26171: Fix possible integer overflow and heap corruption in zipimporter.get_data().

Tested on SunOS by Kees Bos. - Issue 26864: In urllib, change the proxy bypass host checking against no_proxy to be case-insensitive, and to not match unrelated host names that happen to have a bypassed hostname as a suffix. Patch by Xiang Zhang. - Issue 26804: urllib will prefer lower_case proxy environment variables over UPPER_CASE or Mixed_Case ones. Patch contributed by Hans-Peter Jansen. - Issue 26837: assertSequenceEqual() now correctly outputs non-stringified differing items. This affects assertListEqual() and assertTupleEqual(). - Issue 26822: itemgetter, attrgetter and methodcaller objects no longer silently ignore keyword arguments. - Issue 26657: Fix directory traversal vulnerability with SimpleHTTPServer on Windows.
