* Sat Sep 10 2011 David Malcolm <dmalcolm@redhat.com> - 3.2.2-2
- rewrite of "check", introducing downstream-only hooks for skipping specific
cases in an rpmbuild (patch 132), and fixing/skipping failing tests in a more
fine-grained manner than before; (patches 106, 133-142 sparsely, moving
patches for consistency with python.spec: 128 to 134, 126 to 135, 127 to 141)
- set EXTRA_CFLAGS to our CFLAGS, rather than overriding OPT, fixing a linker
error with dynamic annotations (when configured using --with-valgrind)
- fix the ppc build of the debug configuration (patch 130; rhbz#661510)
- 3.2b2
- rework patch 3 (removal of mimeaudio tests), patch 6 (no static libs),
patch 8 (systemtap), patch 102 (lib64)
- remove patch 4 (rendered redundant by upstream r85537), patch 103 (PEP 3149),
patch 110 (upstreamed expat fix), patch 111 (parallel build fix for grammar
fixed upstream)
- regenerate patch 300 (autotool intermediates)
- workaround COUNT_ALLOCS weakref issues in test suite (patch 126, patch 127,
patch 128)
- stop using runtest.sh in %%check (dropped by upstream), replacing with
regrtest; fixup list of failing tests
- introduce "pyshortver", "SOABI_optimized" and "SOABI_debug" macros
- rework manifests of shared libraries to use "SOABI_" macros, reflecting
PEP 3149
- drop itertools, operator and _collections modules from the manifests as py3k
commit r84058 moved these inside libpython; json/tests moved to test/json_tests
- move turtle code into the tkinter subpackage
* Sat Aug 21 2010 David Malcolm <dmalcolm@redhat.com> - 3.2-0.0.a1
- 3.2a1; add alphatag
- rework %%files in the light of PEP 3147 (__pycache__)
- drop our configuration patch to Setup.dist (patch 0): setup.py should do a
better job of things, and the %%files explicitly lists our modules (r82746
appears to break the old way of doing things). This leads to various modules
changing from "foomodule.so" to "foo.so". It also leads to the optimized build
dropping the _sha1, _sha256 and _sha512 modules, but these are provided by
_hashlib; _weakref becomes a builtin module; xxsubtype goes away (it's only for
testing/devel purposes)
- fixup patches 3, 4, 6, 8, 102, 103, 105, 111 for the rebase
- remove upstream patches: 7 (system expat), 106, 107, 108 (audioop reformat
plus CVE-2010-1634 and CVE-2010-2089), 109 (CVE-2008-5983)
- add machinery for rebuilding "configure" and friends, using the correct
version of autoconf (patch 300)
- patch the debug build's usage of COUNT_ALLOCS to be less verbose (patch 125)
- "modulator" was removed upstream
- drop "-b" from patch applications affecting .py files to avoid littering the
installation tree
- reformat whitespace in audioop.c (patch 106)
- CVE-2010-1634: fix various integer overflow checks in the audioop module
(patch 107)
- CVE-2010-2089: further checks within the audioop module (patch 108)
- CVE-2008-5983: the new PySys_SetArgvEx entry point from r81399 (patch
109)
- drop upstreamed patch 2 (.pyc permissions handling)
- drop upstream patch 5 (fix for the test_tk and test_ttk_* selftests)
- drop upstreamed patch 200 (path-fixing script)
- add systemtap static markers (wcohen, mjw, dmalcolm; patch 8), a
systemtap tapset defining "python.function.entry" and
"python.function.return" to make the markers easy to use (dmalcolm;
source 5), and an example of using the tapset to the docs (dmalcolm;
source 6) (rhbz:545179)
%%{_prefix}/lib/debug/%%{_libdir}/INSTSONAME.debug-gdb.py to avoid
noise from ldconfig (bug 562980), and which should also ensure it
becomes part of the debuginfo subpackage, rather than the libs
subpackage
- introduce %%{py_SOVERSION} and %%{py_INSTSONAME} to reflect the upstream
configure script, and to avoid fragile scripts that try to figure this
out dynamically (e.g. for the -gdb.py change)
build of pyexpat and elementtree modules
- add patch adapted from upstream (patch 7) to add support for building
against system expat; add --with-system-expat to "configure" invocation
- remove embedded copies of expat and zlib from source tree during "prep"
- explicitly list all lib-dynload files, rather than dynamically gathering
the payload into a temporary text file, so that we can be sure what we
are shipping
- introduce a macros.pybytecompile source file, to help with packaging
python3 modules (Source3; written by Toshio)
- rename "2to3-3" to "python3-2to3" to better reflect python 3 module
packaging plans
curses configuration in Modules/Setup.dist, so that the curses modules
are built using setup.py with the downstream default (linking against
libncursesw.so, rather than libncurses.so), rather than within the
Makefile; add a test to %%install to verify the dso files that the
curses module is linked against the correct DSO (bug 539917; changes
_cursesmodule.so -> _curses.so)
