Issue 992078: test_format fails 2.4a1 (original) (raw)

uname -a OSF1 pikachu.****.com V5.1 2650 alpha (HP alpha box running Tru64 V5.1B)

Python-2.4a1

make test: test test_format produced unexpected output:

*** line 2 of actual output doesn't appear in expected output after line 1:

no fancy configure options no locale env variables set

Logged In: YES user_id=129426

I can confirm this. It is caused by test__locale that is executed before test_format (and also, test_unicode fails likewise). See:

Not only test_format but also test_unicode fail on my Mandrake 10 box. My default locale is nl_NL. Behold:

[irmen@atlantis Python-2.4a1]$ cat testcases.in test__locale test_format test_unicode

[irmen@atlantis Python-2.4a1]$ ./python Lib/test/regrtest.py -f testcases.in test__locale test_format test test_format produced unexpected output:
