[issue7246] getpass raises IOError when several returns are in stdin before getpass was called [In reply to]

Gregory P. Smith <greg [at] krypto> added the comment:

am unable to duplicate this behavior on Linux or OS X using python 2.6.

What platform did you see the problem on?

that said, can you apply the following patch to your getpass.py and see if
it helps at all?

http://svn.python.org/view/python/trunk/Lib/getpass.py?
r1=74860&r2=76000&pathrev=76000

Gregory P. Smith <greg [at] krypto> added the comment:

ah i misread your example. the following works to reproduce it:

Python 2.6.2 (release26-maint, Apr 19 2009, 01:56:41)
[GCC 4.3.3] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import time, getpass
>>> time.sleep(5)
getpass.getpass()

>>> getpass.getpass()
Password: Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/getpass.py", line 81, in unix_getpass
stream.write('\n')
IOError: [Errno 29] Illegal seek

Gregory P. Smith <greg [at] krypto> added the comment:

change that. it looks like r76000 in trunk already fixes this. i was
using an old build when i tried earlier.

merged into release26-maint in r76015.

----------
resolution: -> fixed
status: open -> closed
