Using py3k branch revision 84707, on Mac OSX 10.6, case-sensitive HFS+ filesystem.


======================================================================
FAIL: test_package_data (distutils.tests.test_build_py.BuildPyTestCase)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/cartman/Sources/py3k/Lib/distutils/tests/test_build_py.py", line 56, in test_package_data
    self.assertTrue("__init__.pyc" in files)
AssertionError: False is not True

Btw I configure with;

./configure --with-wctype-functions --with-fpectl --with-wide-unicode --with-computed-gotos --enable-ipv6 --with-universal-archs=64-bit MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.6

Thank you for the report.  Can you apply this change and paste the new, more useful output?

-    self.assertTrue("__init__.pyc" in files)
+    self.assertIn("__init__.pyc", files)

I am not able to reproduce that failure running on 10.6 (case-sensitive HFS+) using your ./configure options and running the tests in the build directory (make test).  How are you running the tests?  Could there be a file or directory permissions issue?

Problem is I set PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE to 1, tests should disable this environmental variable before testing for *.pyc files. Closing as invalid.

I noticed this bug in the tests of distutils2 and added it to my todo list some time ago.  Tests looking at pycs should take PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE into account and be skipped instead of failing.  I’ll fix it.

Awesome, thank you!

I now think the change I did was wrong.  See #12119.
