Message310158
I'm playing with Gentoo in LXC running on ARM-based QNAP NAS, and when trying to compile Python 3.5.4, the build failed with "Fatal Python error: failed to get random numbers to initialize Python" (full details at https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-8172124.html ).
glibc in the environment is 2.25 (supports getrandom), while kernel is 3.10 (doesn't support getrandom).
Looking at random.c, pyurandom returns -1 instead of falling back to dev_urandom when py_getrandom returns -1, so the attached fix is simple. |
