Bugs item #919614, was opened at 2004-03-19 11:23 Message generated for change (Tracker Item Submitted) made by Item Submitter You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=919614&group_id=5470

Category: Installation Group: Python 2.3 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Fred L. Drake, Jr. (fdrake) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Python configured with --disable-unicode fails tests, more

Initial Comment: When building Python with:

./configure --disable-unicode

the test suite has many spurious failures because modules and tests assume that unicode support is available.

Installing this Python (using "make install") fails at the end of the first run of compileall.py, since that script detects and reports failures; the output contains many lines with the message

Sorry: ValueError: ('Unicode escapes not legal when Unicode disabled',)

This should be fixed, or --disable-unicode should be removed.
