- Tests - gh-125041: Re-enable skipped tests for zlib on the s390x architecture: only skip checks of the compressed bytes, which can be different between zlib’s software implementation and the hardware-accelerated implementation. - gh-109396: Fix test_socket.test_hmac_sha1() in FIPS mode. Use a longer key: FIPS mode requires at least of at least 112 bits. The previous key was only 32 bits. Patch by Victor Stinner. - gh-100454: Fix SSL tests CI for OpenSSL 3.1+ - Security - gh-126623: Upgrade libexpat to 2.6.4 - gh-122792: Changed IPv4-mapped ipaddress.IPv6Address to consistently use the mapped IPv4 address value for deciding properties. Properties which have their behavior fixed are is_multicast, is_reserved, is_link_local, is_global, and is_unspecified. - Library - gh-124651: Properly quote template strings in venv activation scripts. - gh-103848: Add checks to ensure that [ bracketed ] hosts found by urllib.parse.urlsplit() are of IPv6 or IPvFuture format. - Documentation - gh-95588: Clarified the conflicting advice given in the ast documentation about ast.literal_eval() being “safe” for use on untrusted input while at the same time warning that it can crash the process. The latter statement is true and is deemed unfixable without a large amount of work unsuitable OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/devel:languages:python:Factory/python39?expand=0&rev=219

Notes for packagers of Python3

==============================
|
|
|
|
0. Faster build turnaround
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
By default, python builds with profile-guided optimization. This needs
|
|
an additional run of the test suite and it is generally slow.
|
|
PGO build takes around 50 minutes.
|
|
|
|
For development, use "--without profileopt" option to disable PGO. This
|
|
shortens the build time to ~5 minutes including test suite.
|
|
|
|
1. import_failed.map
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
This is a mechanism installed as part of python3-base, that places shim modules
|
|
on python's path (through a generated zzzz-import-failed-hooks.pth file, so that
|
|
it is imported as much at the end as makes sense; and an _import_failed subdir
|
|
of /usr/lib/pythonX.Y). Then when the user tries to import a module that is part
|
|
of a subpackage, the ImportError will contain a helpful message telling them
|
|
which missing subpackage to install.
|
|
|
|
This can sometimes cause problems on non-standard configurations, if the pth
|
|
gets included too early (for instance if you are using a script to include all
|
|
pths by hand in some strange order). Just something to look out for.
