Matej Cepl 2c04be55bd - Update to 3.9.16:
- python -m http.server no longer allows terminal control
    characters sent within a garbage request to be printed to the
    stderr server log.
    This is done by changing the http.server
    BaseHTTPRequestHandler .log_message method to replace control
    characters with a \xHH hex escape before printing.
  - Avoid publishing list of active per-interpreter audit hooks
    via the gc module
  - The IDNA codec decoder used on DNS hostnames by socket or
    asyncio related name resolution functions no longer involves
    a quadratic algorithm. This prevents a potential CPU denial
    of service if an out-of-spec excessive length hostname
    involving bidirectional characters were decoded. Some
    protocols such as urllib http 3xx redirects potentially allow
    for an attacker to supply such a name (CVE-2015-20107).
  - Update bundled libexpat to 2.5.0
  - Port XKCP’s fix for the buffer overflows in SHA-3
    (CVE-2022-37454).
  - On Linux the multiprocessing module returns to using
    filesystem backed unix domain sockets for communication with
    the forkserver process instead of the Linux abstract socket
    namespace. Only code that chooses to use the “forkserver”
    start method is affected.
    Abstract sockets have no permissions and could allow any
    user on the system in the same network namespace (often
    the whole system) to inject code into the multiprocessing
    forkserver process. This was a potential privilege
    escalation. Filesystem based socket permissions restrict this
    to the forkserver process user as was the default in Python

Python 3 in SUSE
==============

* Subpackages *

Python 3 is split into several subpackages, based on external dependencies.
The main package 'python3' has soft dependencies on all subpackages needed to
assemble the standard library; however, these might not all be installed by default.

If you attempt to import a module that is currently not installed, an ImportError is thrown,
with instructions to install the missing subpackage. Installing the subpackage might result
in installing libraries that the subpackage requires to function.


* ensurepip *

The 'ensurepip' module from Python 3 standard library (PEP 453) is supposed to deploy
a bundled copy of the pip installer. This makes no sense in a managed distribution like SUSE.
Instead, you need to install package 'python3-pip'. Usually this will be installed automatically
with 'python3'.

Using 'ensurepip' when pip is not installed will result in an ImportError with instructions
to install 'python3-pip'.


* Documentation *

You can find documentation in seprarate packages: python3-doc and
python3-doc-pdf. These contan following documents:

    Tutorial, What's New in Python, Global Module Index, Library Reference,
    Macintosh Module Reference, Installing Python Modules, Distributing Python
    Modules, Language Reference, Extending and Embedding, Python/C API,
    Documenting Python 

The python3-doc package constains many text files from source tarball.


* Interactive mode *

Interactive mode is by default enhanced with of history and command completion.
If you don't like these features, you can unset the PYTHONSTARTUP variable
in your .profile or disable it system wide in /etc/profile.d/python.sh.
