bug in time.sleep (PR#64)
|

Full_Name: David Dula
Version: 152c1
OS: Debian Alpha Linux (potato) 2.2.1
Submission from: client42207.atl.mediaone.net (24.88.42.207)
This is a interesting bug that seems to have started after I upgraded to debian
potato from slink.
It must be a library related bug but this report might help somebody
troubleshoot.
At first I thought it was a bug in threading because it prevented the solaris
hack sleep from returning
thus my thread.start() never returned.
But further digging show that
import time
time.sleep(0.1) # will always hang on on this platform
Work around is to always sleep at least one second - I will do some more looking
at the time class when I get a chance.
