[Python-Dev] Need help to review a test_nntplib enhancement: (original) (raw)

Hi,

Sometimes, for an unknown reason, test_nntplib fails randomly:

http://bugs.python.org/issue19613

Martin Panter wrote a patch, but since I don't know how to reproduce the bug, I'm unable to test it. Moreover, I don't know nntplib nor test_nntplib, so I don't feel able to review it.

Sadly, Martin doesn't feel confident enough in his patch neither, since again, he is unable to test it.

As a result, the issue is stuck and the bug continues to occur sometimes on buildbots.

Victor
