6. Built-in types 6.1 Truth value testing 6.2 Boolean operations 6.3 Comparisons 6.4 Numeric types (mostly conversions) 6.4.1 32-bit integers 6.4.2 Long integers 6.4.3 Floating point numbers 6.5 Sequence types 6.5.1 Strings 6.5.2 Tuples 6.5.3 Lists 6.5.3a Additional list operations Traceback (most recent call last): File "/house/arbatpy/Python-2.3.2c1/Lib/test/test_types.py", line 415, in ? else: raise TestFailed, 'list sort compare function is not callable' test.test_support.TestFailed: list sort compare function is not callable The test in question is definately failing: >>> z=range(12) >>> z.sort(2) >>> (it should raise a TypeError). Anyone?

Logged In: YES user_id=29957 wow. I exited python after the above z = range(12) z.sort(2) and got Exception exceptions.TypeError: "'int' object is not callable" in 'garbage collection' ignored Fatal Python error: unexpected exception during garbage collection ABORT instruction (core dumped)

Logged In: YES user_id=29957 Linux/ia64 works fine. Building --without-threads and with gcc on HPUX/ia64 passes test_types, but fails with some dynamic linking errors (__divdf3) in test_audioop. Looks like the bug is in the HP/UX compiler.

Logged In: YES user_id=29957 I've sent in a note to the feedback address on the HP site - I don't know if they're likely to respond or not. Ok, I blew everything away and started again with absolutely 100% no optimisation involved, and this time it worked!?! I was trying it on the "other" HP/ia64 box (there's two in the testdrive farm).

Logged In: YES user_id=29957 Closing this now - it's a bug in the HP compiler. I've put a workaround in the HP/UX section of the toplevel README file.
