When building python34, the following test failure happens on ppc64le: ====================================================================== FAIL: test_memoryview_struct_module (test.test_buffer.TestBufferProtocol) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/builddir/build/BUILD/Python-3.4.8/Lib/test/test_buffer.py", line 2521, in test_memoryview_struct_module self.assertEqual(m[1], nd[1]) AssertionError: -21.099998474121094 != -21.100000381469727 This tests equivalence of struct.pack_into and assigning into a memoryview, and fails on a Decimal instance. This doesn't look too serious, so I'll disable the test for now, but it would be nice to look into it.
Given the nature of the package and the arch specificity of this test failure, I don't think it's worth looking into.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 28 development cycle. Changing version to '28'.
Setting this to low priority. It would be great if someone else would get to this earlier than we can. If that's your case, please assign the bug to yourself (and adjust priority accordingly).
It looks like a duplicate of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1540995 but for Python 3.4: this bug is caused by a compiler bug which has been fixed in Rawhide: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=88892
\o/ So we should need only to unskip the test.
I created a PR to reenable the test: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python34/pull-request/27
GCC has been fixed. The test is now run again on ppc64le: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python34/c/400f2b03cd753d85c3a9e6298b4396cad70cf6df?branch=master
That commit is only on rawhide, not in current release (Fedora 29).
