Closed 94523e83-ab6f-4aad-bf91-3deb8ed0dcc5 closed 4 years ago
Here is repro steps:
Runtest itself ran to completion but the 4 tests listed failed. I suspect that this should be closed as "won't fix" because A. 3.6 only gets security fixes since Dec 2018. B. Locally built Windows binaries often fail a few tests, either occasionally or dependably even if the Windows buildbots are green. Just now, test_import (still, or again), test__locale, and test_locale failed for me with 3.9.0a6+. This is unfortunate, but it is sometimes not clear whether the bug is in the modules or the tests.
Thanks for the report. Unfortunately, you are not actually building Python 3.6 here. Revision f3a5b7a is on the master branch, not 3.6. The fact that you are seeing a failure of test_peg_generator confirms that you are building from master (i.e. a pre-release of 3.9), since that test and the feature behind it are new in 3.9.
P.S. If you *do* want to build the current HEAD of the 3.6 branch including as yet unreleased fixes:
git checkout 3.6
If you want to build a specific release, use the v^ tags provided for each release:
git checkout v3.6.8
Note: these values reflect the state of the issue at the time it was migrated and might not reflect the current state.
