Hi All:
Running 8.1 AMD64. I had python 2.6.8 installed. After upgrading several
ports, which installed python 2.7.3_2, scripts requiring 2.6 fail due to an
inability to import urandom from os.
Now I'm not a python person by any means, but I was wondering where its
trying to find urandom. Could it be looking for 'dev/urandom'? Or perhaps
urandom from ports/math/mpc?
In a few scripts I've changed 2.6 to 2.7 and they seem to work. Did
installing 2.7 alongside 2.6 break something?
Specifically, right now I'm trying to install mail/mailman port which looks
for python 2.6. It terminates with the following:
================================================
Compiling /usr/local/mailman/Mailman/versions.py ...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "bin/update", line 50, in <module>
from Mailman import Utils
File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Utils.py", line 32, in <module>
import cgi
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/cgi.py", line 49, in <module>
import mimetools
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/mimetools.py", line 6, in <module>
import tempfile
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/tempfile.py", line 34, in <module>
from random import Random as _Random
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/random.py", line 47, in <module>
from os import urandom as _urandom
ImportError: cannot import name urandom
=================================================
I've googled and searched archives and all I can find is ubuntu problems
related to a virtual machine.
Does anyone know what's going on?
Thanks,
Gene
