Project Status¶

There is support for producing 64-bit CPython distributions for Windows, macOS, and Linux. All distributions are highly self-contained and have limited shared library dependencies.

Planned and features include:

Static/dynamic linking toggles for dependencies
Support for configuring which toolchain/version to use
Support for BSDs
Support for iOS and/or Android
Support for Python distributions that aren’t CPython

Test Failures¶

This repository contains test-distribution.py script that can be used to run the Python test harness from a distribution archive.

Here, we track the various known failures when running test-distribution.py /path/to/distribution.tar.zst -u all.

`test__locale`¶

Known failing on: Windows

This test fails as follows:

======================================================================
ERROR: test_float_parsing (test.test__locale._LocaleTests)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\gps\AppData\Local\Temp\tmpjx7a33kd\python\install\lib\test\test__locale.py", line 184, in test_float_parsing
    if localeconv()['decimal_point'] != '.':
UnicodeDecodeError: 'locale' codec can't decode byte 0xa0 in position 0: decoding error

======================================================================
ERROR: test_lc_numeric_localeconv (test.test__locale._LocaleTests)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\gps\AppData\Local\Temp\tmpjx7a33kd\python\install\lib\test\test__locale.py", line 130, in test_lc_numeric_localeconv
    formatting = localeconv()
UnicodeDecodeError: 'locale' codec can't decode byte 0xa0 in position 0: decoding error

----------------------------------------------------------------------

`test_locale`¶

Known failing on: Windows

This test fails on Windows:

======================================================================
ERROR: test_getsetlocale_issue1813 (test.test_locale.TestMiscellaneous)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\gps\AppData\Local\Temp\tmp8m94v2m5\python\install\lib\test\test_locale.py", line 567, in test_getsetlocale_issue1813
    locale.setlocale(locale.LC_CTYPE, loc)
  File "C:\Users\gps\AppData\Local\Temp\tmp8m94v2m5\python\install\lib\locale.py", line 608, in setlocale
    return _setlocale(category, locale)
locale.Error: unsupported locale setting

----------------------------------------------------------------------

`test_ssl`¶

Known failing on: Linux

When building against LibreSSL instead of OpenSSL, test_ssl fails in the following manner:

======================================================================
FAIL: test_openssl_version (test.test_ssl.BasicSocketTests)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/tmp/tmpinhxfy8t/python/install/lib/python3.7/test/test_ssl.py", line 573, in test_openssl_version
    (s, t, hex(n)))
AssertionError: False is not true : ('LibreSSL 3.0.2', (2, 0, 0, 0, 0), '0x20000000')

----------------------------------------------------------------------

This seems to be the test assuming the existence of OpenSSL and not coping with LibreSSl. This failure seems pretty benign.

`test_subprocess`¶

Known Failing on: Linux

This fails in the following manner:

test_executable_without_cwd (test.test_subprocess.ProcessTestCaseNoPoll) ... Could not find platform independent libraries <prefix>
Could not find platform dependent libraries <exec_prefix>
Consider setting $PYTHONHOME to <prefix>[:<exec_prefix>]
Fatal Python error: initfsencoding: Unable to get the locale encoding
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'encodings'

Current thread 0x00007fd77c231740 (most recent call first):
FAIL

======================================================================
FAIL: test_executable_without_cwd (test.test_subprocess.ProcessTestCaseNoPoll)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/tmp/tmp8hef0kr4/python/install/lib/python3.7/test/test_subprocess.py", line 436, in test_executable_without_cwd
    executable=sys.executable)
  File "/tmp/tmp8hef0kr4/python/install/lib/python3.7/test/test_subprocess.py", line 355, in _assert_cwd
    self.assertEqual(47, p.returncode)
AssertionError: 47 != -6

We’re unsure what is going on here. The error from initfsencoding is what happens when the first import during Py_Initialize() fails. So it appears the test somehow can’t locate the Python standard library.

`test_tk`¶

Known Failing on: Linux

This fails in the following manner:

======================================================================
FAIL: test_from (tkinter.test.test_tkinter.test_widgets.ScaleTest)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/tmp/tmpoqqjd5gi/python/install/lib/python3.7/tkinter/test/test_tkinter/test_widgets.py", line 867, in test_from
    self.checkFloatParam(widget, 'from', 100, 14.9, 15.1, conv=float_round)
  File "/tmp/tmpoqqjd5gi/python/install/lib/python3.7/tkinter/test/widget_tests.py", line 106, in checkFloatParam
    self.checkParam(widget, name, value, conv=conv, **kwargs)
  File "/tmp/tmpoqqjd5gi/python/install/lib/python3.7/tkinter/test/widget_tests.py", line 63, in checkParam
    self.assertEqual2(widget[name], expected, eq=eq)
  File "/tmp/tmpoqqjd5gi/python/install/lib/python3.7/tkinter/test/widget_tests.py", line 47, in assertEqual2
    self.assertEqual(actual, expected, msg)
AssertionError: 14.9 != 15.0

This seems like a minor issue and might be a bug in the test itself.

`test_winconsoleio`¶

This fails as follows:

======================================================================
ERROR: test_ctrl_z (test.test_winconsoleio.WindowsConsoleIOTests)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
