Theis the first time I've submitted bug reports to Python.org's
development efforts, though I've been using Python for many years.
I don't know what the procedures are for followup to emails like you
sent me, and given that the address is reports@bugs.python.org, I'm
not even sure who -- if anyone -- reads a response like this.
Please tell me how to follow up and anything else you'd like to
suggest about how I could help more effectively.
I retried IDLE it with Python 2.6rc1 and got a very helpful
and elaborate error message about not being able to start the
subprocess, what port it was trying to connect to, and a pointer to
information about running it without a subprocess. I had my
Mac's Security Firewall set to allow all incoming connections, so I
don't know why it was refusing this one, but I changed the settings to
"Set access for specific services and applications" and
added idle26 and idle30. IDLE 2.6rc1 now works.
However, I checked out 3.0 sources from the Subversion repository
yesterday, but am still getting a problem, though a different one,
with IDLE30:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in
<module>
File
"/usrlocal/lib/python3.0/idlelib/run.py", line 76, in
main
sockthread.set_daemon(True)
AttributeError: 'Thread' object has no attribute
'set_daemon'
Should I just assume that the development problem will be taking
care of things like this, or is it helpful for me to report them when
I encounter them?
Thanks for your response.

This bug was fixed after b3 was released (r65971). You should retry
it
using python 2.6rc1 or update your sources for py3k.
