#24421: python dies using multiprocessing/urllib2 from mac ports, but works with stock python -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: vkuznet@… | Owner: blb@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.8.2 Keywords: | Port: python26 -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Comment(by craig.hawco@…): As a workaround setting any environment variable ending with "_proxy" to a non-empty value prevents urllib from calling SystemConfiguration, and thus prevents this particular crash. That does not resolve this central issue. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/24421#comment:13> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
