_FileCache._GetUsername fails when controlling process not a tty #14

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

_FileCache._GetUsername falls back to os.getlogin when trying to determine the 
current username 
for setting up its cache file, but when the controlling process is not a tty 
this will raise an IOError. 
Since there are plenty of situations where Python will be launched from 
something that isn't a tty, 
this should either be removed or be wrapped in a try/except with a further 
fallback.
