Does the attached patch fix the issue?

@Éric: You should probably strip the colour from your diff :-)

hi eric: thanks for the reply. here is what i'm getting from 'patch --dry-run' command:

Can you test with a checkout of the py3k branch?  http://docs.python.org/devguide/setup#checking-out-the-code

seemed no errors. end of check attach:

U   py3k
Checked out revision 88674.

So the patch fixes the resource warnings?

only the sysconfig.py was patched, the rest were "reject'ed." no compilation yet at this time.

Can you try updating your py3k checkout and applying with “patch -p1”?

thanks.py3k done. 
still having rejects, applied patch:

And of course, I said the wrong thing :)  This patch needs -p0.

btw, if not know yet the patches are applied to python 3.2.
anyway the patch -p0 resulted exactly the same rejects.

hi eric,
maybe we are troubleshooting the wrong thing. so i downloaded the python3.2 package again. configured no error. 
now make gives, just one bad or missing module(s). 

Failed to build these modules:
ossaudiodev              

i can't find it in synaptic manager. what are the packages i need to install to build ossaudiodev! can you help or should i post?
thanks,
lw

ossaudiodev is a platform-specific module that you don’t have to care about.  It’s just a compilation warning that an option module has not been built, nothing to worry about.

I just realized that I was not paying enough attention to your error messages.  I have never used patch with the -d or -i options.  To apply the patch, change directory to the source of Python, where you should see the Lib and Modules directories for example, and then patch -p0 < distutils-files.diff

so i downloaded the python-3.2 source again, applied the .diff file. still getting _io.TextIOWrapper open file error. then ran the major 5 individual make test_ files errors. hope u can find from these:

thanks again

The test failures you quoted are not related to distutils.

I cannot see the ResourceWarnings in 3.2 or 3.3, so I think I’m going to close this issue.

The first ResourceWarning looks like the test_cgi leak from issue10512, which was fixed in changeset ae186b3b2c55.

Sorry about accidentally changing the issue status to "open". It seems that I don't have the requisite privileges to change it back to "pending"...

Any message will automatically change pending to open, don’t worry.

Closing after no reply.  If someone can reproduce the bug, please say so and reopen.
