I don't think that a thread about a release is the right place to discuss a bug. Please open an issue at bugs.python.org 😉

This bug in bpo-33329: https://bugs.python.org/issue33329 This is also potentially affecting PGO builds of 2.7 on Debian Buster with GCC. Somehow building with Clang is fine. Does the configure time choice of compiler make a difference here for 3.4 and 3.5? I don't know. I only build with the default compiler on my machine, gcc. (My machine is Linux, 64-bit.) It'd be swell if you tried the RCs with clang! /arry I've only risen this as a newer glibc was implicated as a potential source of trouble, I have a lab / 'canary in a coal mine' server on a prerelease OS version (Debian Buster is currently in feature freeze ~ release candidate stage) and I've not noticed anything to have happened with a newer glibc in relation to building Python, but I've not had success building a PGO build of 2.7.15 with the GCC shipped at that time, but building with Clang working fine. I'd thus be inclined to point at digging up relevant changes in GCC than in glibc. Currently 2.7.16 compiles just fine for me on both GCC and Clang. 2.7.15 still does not compile fine for me on GCC. FWIW - both Python 3 RCs from above successfully complete a PGO build for me (and thus implicitly also pass the regression tests) with Clang. They both get stuck with GCC. $ cat /etc/debianversion buster/sid $ aptitude show base-files Package: base-files Version: 10.1 Essential: yes State: installed $ aptitude show libc6 Package: libc6 Version: 2.28-8 State: installed $ aptitude show clang Package: clang Version: 1:7.0-47 State: installed $ clang --version clang version 7.0.1-8 (tags/RELEASE701/final) Target: x8664-pc-linux-gnu Thread model: posix InstalledDir: /usr/bin $ aptitude show gcc Package: gcc Version: 4:8.3.0-1 State: installed $ gcc --version gcc (Debian 8.3.0-2) 8.3.0 And for anyone wishing to try such things out for themselves, one can simply set the CC environment variable for the autotools provided ./configure script. See ./configure --help for any further details and instructions. -- Joni Orponen
