python3.5 3.5.4~rc1-1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

python3.5 (3.5.4~rc1-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Python 3.5.4 release candidate 1.
    - bpo-30500: Fix urllib.parse.splithost() to correctly parse fragments. For
      example, ``splithost('//127.0.0.1#@evil.com/')`` now correctly returns the
      ``127.0.0.1`` host, instead of treating ``@evil.com`` as the host in an
      authentification (``login@host``).
    - bpo-30876: Relative import from unloaded package now reimports the package
      instead of failing with SystemError.  Relative import from non-package now
      fails with ImportError rather than SystemError.
    - bpo-30765: Avoid blocking in pthread_mutex_lock() when
      PyThread_acquire_lock() is asked not to block.
    - bpo-29403: Fix ``unittest.mock``'s autospec to not fail on method-bound
      builtin functions.
    - bpo-30961: Fix decrementing a borrowed reference in tracemalloc.
    - bpo-30886: Fix multiprocessing.Queue.join_thread(): it now waits until the
      thread completes, even if the thread was started by the same process which
      created the queue.
    - bpo-29854: Fix segfault in readline when using readline's history-size
      option.
    - bpo-30807: signal.setitimer() may disable the timer when passed a tiny
      value.
      Tiny values (such as 1e-6) are valid non-zero values for setitimer(),
      which is specified as taking microsecond-resolution intervals. However, on
      some platform, our conversion routine could convert 1e-6 into a zero
      interval, therefore disabling the timer instead of (re-)scheduling it.
    - bpo-30441: Fix bug when modifying os.environ while iterating over it
    - bpo-30532: Fix email header value parser dropping folding white space in
      certain cases.
    - bpo-30879: os.listdir() and os.scandir() now emit bytes names when called
      with bytes- like argument.
    - bpo-30746: Prohibited the '=' character in environment variable names in
      ``os.putenv()`` and ``os.spawn*()``.
    - bpo-29755: Fixed the lgettext() family of functions in the gettext module.
      They now always return bytes.
    - bpo-30645: Fix path calculation in imp.load_package(), fixing it for cases
      when a package is only shipped with bytecodes.
    - bpo-23890: unittest.TestCase.assertRaises() now manually breaks a
      reference cycle to not keep objects alive longer than expected.
    - bpo-30149: inspect.signature() now supports callables with variable-
      argument parameters wrapped with partialmethod.
    - bpo-29931: Fixed comparison check for ipaddress.ip_interface objects.
    - bpo-24484: Avoid race condition in multiprocessing cleanup.
    - bpo-28994: The traceback no longer displayed for SystemExit raised in a
      callback registered by atexit.
    - bpo-30508: Don't log exceptions if Task/Future "cancel()" method was
      called.
    - bpo-28556: Updates to typing module: Add generic AsyncContextManager, add
      support for ContextManager on all versions.
    - bpo-29870: Fix ssl sockets leaks when connection is aborted in asyncio/ssl
      implementation.
    - bpo-29743: Closing transport during handshake process leaks open socket.
    - bpo-27585: Fix waiter cancellation in asyncio.Lock.
    - bpo-30418: On Windows, subprocess.Popen.communicate() now also ignore
      EINVAL on stdin.write() if the child process is still running but closed
      the pipe.
    - bpo-28969: Fixed race condition in C implementation of
      functools.lru_cache. KeyError could be raised when cached function with
      full cache was simultaneously called from differen threads with the same
      uncached arguments.
    - bpo-29142: In urllib.request, suffixes in no_proxy environment variable
      with leading dots could match related hostnames again (e.g. .b.c matches
      a.b.c).
    - bpo-30176: Add missing attribute related constants in curses
      documentation.
    - bpo-30822: Fix regrtest command line parser to allow passing -u
      extralargefile to run test_zipfile64.
    - bpo-30383: regrtest: Enhance regrtest and backport features from the
      master branch.
      Add options: --coverage, --testdir, --list-tests (list test files, don't
      run them), --list-cases (list test identifiers, don't run them,
      :issue:`30523`), --matchfile (load a list of test filters from a text
      file, :issue:`30540`), --slowest (alias to --slow).

      Enhance output: add timestamp, test result, currently running tests,
      "Tests result: xxx" summary with total duration, etc.

      Fix reference leak hunting in regrtest, --huntrleaks: regrtest now warms
      up caches, create explicitly all internal singletons which are created on
      demand to prevent false positives when checking for reference leaks.
      (:issue:`30675`).
    - bpo-30357: test_thread: setUp() now uses support.threading_setup() and
      support.threading_cleanup() to wait until threads complete to avoid random
      side effects on following tests.
    - bpo-28087: Skip test_asyncore and test_eintr poll failures on macOS. Skip
      some tests of select.poll when running on macOS due to unresolved issues
      with the underlying system poll function on some macOS versions.
    - bpo-30197: Enhanced functions swap_attr() and swap_item() in the
      test.support module. They now work when delete replaced attribute or item
      inside the with statement.  The old value of the attribute or item (or
      None if it doesn't exist) now will be assigned to the target of the "as"
      clause, if there is one.
    - bpo-29571: to match the behaviour of the ``re.LOCALE`` flag,
      test_re.test_locale_flag now uses ``locale.getpreferredencoding(False)``
      to determine the candidate encoding for the test regex (allowing it to
      correctly skip the test when the default locale encoding is a multi-byte
      encoding)
  * Build using -fexceptions on ppc64 and ppc64el.
    Closes: #862925. LP: #1691848.
  * Update symbols files.
  * Move test_support.py from libpython3.5-testsuite to libpython3.5-stdlib.
