Python v2_2_1 release notes This release is based on python-2.2.1 from python.org. It is linked against the external "readline" (for command history) and "expat" (for XML parsing) library products. The release passes all regression tests *except*: - openpty tests fail on OSF1 - on Solaris and IRIX, commas/dots for thousands/millions, etc. are not put in numbers (i.e. 4,025) when the locale says to. This reflects the underlying C library on the releases where the build is being done. - platform specific audio tests have not been run - test_fcntl fails on Linux with: exceptions.IOError: [Errno 37] No locks available we believe this to be a resource availability issue.
