Python 3.7.7 final
Library
bpo-13487: Avoid a possible “RuntimeError: dictionary changed size during iteration” from inspect.getmodule() when it tried to loop through sys.modules.
Documentation
bpo-17422: The language reference no longer restricts default class namespaces to dicts only.
Python 3.7.7 release candidate 1
Security
bpo-39401: Avoid unsafe load of api-ms-win-core-path-l1-1-0.dll at startup on Windows 7.
Core and Builtins
bpo-39776: Fix race condition where threads created by PyGILState_Ensure() could get a duplicate id.
This affects consumers of tstate->id like the contextvar caching machinery, which could return invalid cached objects under heavy thread load (observed in embedded scenarios).
bpo-39778: Fixed a crash due to incorrect handling of weak references in collections.OrderedDict classes. Patch by Pablo Galindo.
bpo-39382: Fix a use-after-free in the single inheritance path of issubclass(), when the __bases__ of an object has a single reference, and so does its first item. Patch by Yonatan Goldschmidt.
bpo-39606: Fix regression caused by fix for bpo-39386, that prevented calling aclose on an async generator that had already been closed or exhausted.
bpo-39510: Fix segfault in readinto() method on closed BufferedReader.
bpo-39453: Fixed a possible crash in list.__contains__() when a list is changed during comparing items. Patch by Dong-hee Na.
bpo-39427: Document all possibilities for the -X options in the command line help section. Patch by Pablo Galindo.
bpo-39421: Fix possible crashes when operating with the functions in the heapq module and custom comparison operators.
bpo-39386: Prevent double awaiting of async iterator.
bpo-38588: Fix possible crashes in dict and list when calling PyObject_RichCompareBool().
bpo-39031: When parsing an “elif” node, lineno and col_offset of the node now point to the “elif” keyword and not to its condition, making it consistent with the “if” node. Patch by Lysandros Nikolaou.
bpo-38610: Fix possible crashes in several list methods by holding strong references to list elements when calling PyObject_RichCompareBool().
Library
bpo-39794: Add –without-decimal-contextvar build option. This enables a thread-local rather than a coroutine local context.
bpo-39769: The compileall.compile_dir() function’s ddir parameter and the compileall command line flag -d no longer write the wrong pathname to the generated pyc file for submodules beneath the root of the directory tree being compiled. This fixes a regression introduced with Python 3.5.
bpo-30566: Fix IndexError when trying to decode an invalid string with punycode codec.
bpo-39649: Remove obsolete check for __args__ in bdb.Bdb.format_stack_entry.
bpo-27657: The original fix for bpo-27657, “Fix urlparse() with numeric paths” (GH-16839) included in 3.7.6, inadvertently introduced a behavior change that broke several third-party packages relying on the original undefined parsing behavior. The change is reverted in 3.7.7, restoring the behavior of 3.7.5 and earlier releases.
bpo-21016: The pydoc and trace modules now use the sysconfig module to get the path to the Python standard library, to support uncommon installation path like /usr/lib64/python3.9/ on Fedora. Patch by Jan Matějek.
bpo-39548: Fix handling of header in urllib.request.AbstractDigestAuthHandler when the optional qop parameter is not present.
bpo-39450: Striped whitespace from docstring before returning it from unittest.case.shortDescription().
bpo-39493: Mark typing.IO.closed as a property
bpo-39485: Fix a bug in unittest.mock.create_autospec() that would complain about the wrong number of arguments for custom descriptors defined in an extension module returning functions.
bpo-39430: Fixed race condition in lazy imports in tarfile.
bpo-39389: Write accurate compression level metadata in gzip archives, rather than always signaling maximum compression.
bpo-39274: bool(fraction.Fraction) now returns a boolean even if (numerator != 0) does not return a boolean (ex: numpy number).
bpo-39242: Updated the Gmane domain from news.gmane.org to news.gmane.io which is used for examples of NNTP news reader server and nntplib tests.
bpo-39152: Fix ttk.Scale.configure([name]) to return configuration tuple for name or all options. Giovanni Lombardo contributed part of the patch.
bpo-39198: If an exception were to be thrown in Logger.isEnabledFor (say, by asyncio timeouts or stopit) , the logging global lock may not be released appropriately, resulting in deadlock. This change wraps that block of code with try...finally to ensure the lock is released.
bpo-39191: Perform a check for running loop before starting a new task in loop.run_until_complete() to fail fast; it prevents the side effect of new task spawning before exception raising.
bpo-38871: Correctly parenthesize filter-based statements that contain lambda expressions in mod:lib2to3. Patch by Dong-hee Na.
bpo-39142: A change was made to logging.config.dictConfig to avoid converting instances of named tuples to ConvertingTuple. It’s assumed that named tuples are too specialised to be treated like ordinary tuples; if a user of named tuples requires ConvertingTuple functionality, they will have to implement that themselves in their named tuple class.
bpo-38971: Open issue in the BPO indicated a desire to make the implementation of codecs.open() at parity with io.open(), which implements a try/except to assure file stream gets closed before an exception is raised.
bpo-39057: urllib.request.proxy_bypass_environment() now ignores leading dots and no longer ignores a trailing newline.
bpo-39056: Fixed handling invalid warning category in the -W option. No longer import the re module if it is not needed.
bpo-39055: base64.b64decode() with validate=True raises now a binascii.Error if the input ends with a single \n.
bpo-38878: Fixed __subclasshook__ of os.PathLike to return a correct result upon inheritence. Patch by Bar Harel.
bpo-35182: Fixed Popen.communicate() subsequent call crash when the child process has already closed any piped standard stream, but still continues to be running. Patch by Andriy Maletsky.
bpo-38473: Use signature from inner mock for autospecced methods attached with unittest.mock.attach_mock(). Patch by Karthikeyan Singaravelan.
bpo-38293: Add copy.copy() and copy.deepcopy() support to property() objects.
bpo-37953: In typing, improved the __hash__ and __eq__ methods for ForwardReferences.
bpo-36406: Handle namespace packages in doctest. Patch by Karthikeyan Singaravelan.
Documentation
bpo-13790: Change ‘string’ to ‘specification’ in format doc.
bpo-39530: Fix misleading documentation about mixed-type numeric comparisons.
bpo-17422: The language reference now specifies restrictions on class namespaces. Adapted from a patch by Ethan Furman.
bpo-39654: In pyclbr doc, update ‘class’ to ‘module’ where appropriate and add readmodule comment. Patch by Hakan Çelik.
bpo-39392: Explain that when filling with turtle, overlap regions may be left unfilled.
bpo-39381: Mention in docs that asyncio.get_event_loop() implicitly creates new event loop only if called from the main thread.
bpo-38918: Add an entry for __module__ in the “function” & “method” sections of the inspect docs types and members table
bpo-3530: In the ast module documentation, fix a misleading NodeTransformer example and add advice on when to use the fix_missing_locations function.
Tests
bpo-38546: Fix test_ressources_gced_in_workers() of test_concurrent_futures: explicitly stop the manager to prevent leaking a child process running in the background after the test completes.
Build
bpo-39144: The ctags and etags build targets both include Modules/_ctypes and Python standard library source files.
Windows
bpo-38597: distutils will no longer statically link vcruntime140.dll when a redistributable version is unavailable. All future releases of CPython will include a copy of this DLL to ensure distributed extensions can continue to load.
bpo-38380: Update Windows builds to use SQLite 3.31.1
bpo-39439: Reduce overhead when using multiprocessing in a Windows virtual environment
bpo-39185: The build.bat script has additional options for very-quiet output (-q) and very-verbose output (-vv)
macOS
bpo-38380: Update macOS builds to use SQLite 3.31.1
IDLE
bpo-39781: Selecting code context lines no longer causes a jump.
bpo-39663: Add tests for pyparse find_good_parse_start().
bpo-39600: In the font configuration window, remove duplicated font names.
bpo-30780: Add remaining configdialog tests for buttons and highlights and keys tabs.
bpo-39388: IDLE Settings Cancel button now cancels pending changes
bpo-39050: Make IDLE Settings dialog Help button work again.

Packaged by pin in pkgsrc-wip. (The change log below doesn't note this,
but NetBSD-specific patches from pin were also merged in 0.13.0.)
V0.13.0
---------
* Allow dash and some other characters (-,;!@*') in URL schemes.
* Support syntax color customization, with two separate settings for light and dark color schemes.
* Also added an option for the whitespace color value.
* Never use processEvents(); it makes single-instance apps prone to crash in rare cases.
* Consider the HTML ampersand valid in "&name;", "&number;" and "&hexadecimal;".
* Yet smarter Shift+Enter with alphabetical lists.
* Bypass medium focus stealing prevention.
* Fixed a problem in highlighting of multiline comments (with languages that have regex).
* Fixed highlighting of Markdown code blocks without language.
* Remember cursor's horizontal pixel position before Backspace/Enter and restore it after Down/Up. This feature was removed with Backspace due
to a regression in Qt 5.14.1.
* Found and fixed a potential issue in translations (thanks to Masamichi Ito — ito32bit at GitHub).
* Don't read custom shortcuts and syntax colors from global config files because the user should be able to restore their default values.
V0.12.1
---------
* Removed "changelog" and "gtkrc" from the language menu (like "srt") while keeping their syntax highlighting.
* Allow searching in the language menu by typing continuously.
* More informative message when a non-text file isn't opened because of preferences.
* Fixed disabled sort line actions in context menu.
* Fixed a case of escaped quote/brace/bracket in YAML.
* Reformat the visible text rectangle on toggling line wrapping.
* Considered the new behavior of horizontal wheel scrolling in Qt 5.14.0.
* Added a workaround for the bug in horizontal scrollbars of Qt 5.14.0.
bsdtar chooses the base system tar if it is libarchive tar (NetBSD
9/current, typically), and the package otherwise, so there is no need
to conditionalize setting bsdtar on NetBSD.

Changes in 2.2.7 (since 2.2.6)
* New interfaces and functionality
** (texinfo plain-text) now exports '*line-width*' fluid
The new '*line-width*' fluid allows users to specify the width of a line
for the purposes of line wrapping. See "texinfo plain-text" in the
manual.
* Bug fixes
** Reduce GC pressure when using bignums
Guile no longer installs a finalizer on each bignum (large integer) it
creates. This significantly improves speed and memory usage on
applications that make heavy use of bignums, such as the compiler
itself.
** Fix peval bug that ignored excess arguments
In an expression like:
((lambda ()
(define (add1 n)(+ 1 n))
(add1 1 2)))
the compiler (specifically 'peval') would silently ignore the excess
argument to 'add1'.
** Respect thread local fluid defaults
Previously (fluid-ref (make-thread-local-fluid #t)) would return #f.
This is now fixed.
** Fix non-deterministic crash in 'finalization_thread_proc'
(<https://bugs.gnu.org/37757>)
** texinfo properly renders @acronym in plain text
(<https://bugs.gnu.org/37846>)
** 'scm_port_poll' honors "w" flags
(<https://bugs.gnu.org/36709>)
** Do not record LDFLAGS in .pc file
(<https://bugs.gnu.org/36339>)
** Fix Readline configure check for the sake of libedit
This fixes builds on macOS against the system-provided libedit.
** Fix build on platforms where the stack grows upwards

Version 2.48.0
- The following is a summary of changes between 2.46.x and 2.48.0.
For full details, please see the 2.47.x release notes below.
- This release requires at least Rust 1.39.
- #379 - New API, rsvg_handle_set_stylesheet(), to set a CSS
stylesheet independent of the SVG document.
- #510 - support opacity in patterns.
- Librsvg's XML parser now supports namespaces (xmlns), and is
stricter than before about it. Files may fail to parse if there are
attributes or elements with namespace prefixes (e.g. foo:bar instead
of plain bar), but without a corresponding namespace declaration
(e.g. xmlns:foo="http://example.com/foo").
This may happen especially with incorrectly-written SVGs that use
xlink:href or xi:include attributes without the corresponding
namespace declarations. If you run into this, just add the
following to your toplevel SVG element:
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"
xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude">
^^^^^^^^^ these ones
- Librsvg no longer depends on libcroco, and now does all CSS
processing using Rust crates from Mozilla Servo. As a result,
librsvg can now handle much more complex CSS selectors than before.
- Link-time optimization (LTO) is disabled by default on release
builds, as this increased build time too much. Downstream
distributors may want to turn it back on in the toplevel Cargo.toml.
- #515 (CVE-2019-20446) - Librsvg now has limits on the number of
loaded XML elements, and the number of referenced elements within an
SVG document. This is to mitigate malicious SVGs which try to
consume all memory, and those which try to consume an exponential
amount of CPU time.
- Many bugfixes; please see the 2.47.x release notes below.
Version 2.47.4
- (#240) - Fix rsvg-convert's multipage PDF output when the zoom
option is used (Sven Neumann).
- (#547) - Do not stop rendering if an <image> element references a
nonexistent file. This fixes a number of Open Clipart cases.
- (#558) - Compute the font-size cascade correctly when there are "em"
#and "ex" units involved.
- Updated the man page for rsvg-convert (Sven Neumann).
Version 2.47.3
- #379 - New API, rsvg_handle_set_stylesheet(), to set a CSS
stylesheet independent of the SVG document.
- #510 - support opacity in patterns (Sven Neumann).
- Move away from the Cairo transform type to our own (Paolo Borelli).
- Update the gtk-rs version.
Version 2.47.2
- Handling of the "result", "in", "in2" attributes in filter
primitives is slightly stricter now, and spec compliant. Their
arguments must be of type CSS custom-ident, so "default", "inherit",
"initial", and "unset" are disallowed. Most SVGs should still work
fine.
- #542 - Fix infinite loop when processing CSS sibling combinators.
- #408 - feImage filters no longer clip their output to integer
coordinates.
- #504 - Documentation for the Rust crate (available at
https://gnome.pages.gitlab.gnome.org/librsvg/doc/librsvg/) now has
API usage examples.
- Debug logs from RSVG_LOG=1 should now be more legible and contain
better information on invalid CSS.
- Remove link-time workarounds for Rust pre-1.35 (Kleis Auke Wolthuizen).
- Unify internal error types to share the CSS code with gnome-shell.
- Made handling of XML namespaces more spec-compliant.
- Lots of refactoring to start moving away from Cairo internals
(Paolo Borelli).
Version 2.47.1
- Librsvg no longer depends on libcroco! It now does all CSS
processing using Rust crates from Mozilla Servo; these are also the
crates that are in use in recent versions of Firefox. As a result,
librsvg can now handle much more complex CSS selectors than before.
Fixes#79, #167, #237, #283, #336, #428, #441, #466, #525, #525
(Paolo Borelli, Federico Mena). Thanks to Evgeniy Reizner
for fixing https://github.com/servo/servo/issues/22972, which made
it possible to use Servo's selectors crate.
- #524 - Panic when reading an invalid stylesheet URL in an XML
processing instruction (Paolo Borelli)
- Lots of little improvements to the documentation.
- Link-time optimization (LTO) is disabled by default on release
builds, as this increased build time too much. Downstream
distributors may want to turn it back on in the toplevel Cargo.toml.
- We now have the start of documentation on the library's internals at
https://gnome.pages.gitlab.gnome.org/librsvg/doc/rsvg_internals/index.html
This should be interest of newcomers to librsvg's source code.
Version 2.47.0
- Librsvg's XML parser now supports namespaces (xmlns), and is
stricter than before about it. Files may fail to parse if there are
attributes or elements with namespace prefixes (e.g. foo:bar instead
of plain bar), but without a corresponding namespace declaration
(e.g. xmlns:foo="http://example.com/foo").
This may happen especially with incorrectly-written SVGs that use
xlink:href or xi:include attributes without the corresponding
namespace declarations. If you run into this, just add the
following to your toplevel SVG element:
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"
xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude">
^^^^^^^^^ these ones
- Patterns and gradients reused across more than one element will only
get resolved once now; this should make things marginally faster for
patterns or gradients with fallbacks.
- #515 (CVE-2019-20446) - Librsvg now has limits on the number of
loaded XML elements, and the number of referenced elements within an
SVG document. This is to mitigate malicious SVGs which try to
consume all memory, and those which try to consume an exponential
amount of CPU time.
- #521 - Compute geometries correctly if there is a viewBox attribute.
- #308 - Fix stack exhaustion with circular references in <use> elements.
- Consistently use the LGPL 2.1 wherever it is mentioned.
- Patterns and gradients reused across more than one element will only
get resolved once now; this should make things marginally faster for
patterns or gradients with fallbacks.
- #506 - Fix empty patterns which reference a fallback pattern with
children.
Currently libctf builds but does not install on Linux.
The Linux implementation of libctf is very new, so we disable it in pkgsrc
for now pending future updates and thorough testing.

The patch sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH so that uninstalled
glib-compile-resources can find libraries. This fixes the following
error during build on Darwin:

This is a signficant update from 5.2.0; proj has withdrawn one API and
deprecated another. Packages that have a healthy upstream and are up
to date should be ok, but some will need remedial attention. I have
held off on this update for quite a long time, but it seems we have
arrived at the problems from some packages' failure to cope with proj
6 being less serious than holding back well-maintained packages from
the improvements.
Add an option "proj-grids", default on, to include the optional grid
files. These are large, but necessary for many datum transformations.
Upstream's tests fail with them installed, because the test vectors
are computed without them, so tests are forced to fail if grids are
included.
Upstream NEWS, projected to standard NEWS content follows. (NB: The
6.0.0 content is the most critical to understand.)

6.0.0 Release Notes
-------------------
PROJ 6 has undergone extensive changes to increase its functional scope from a
cartographic projection engine with so-called "early-binding" geodetic datum
transformation capabilities to a more complete library supporting coordinate
transformations and coordinate reference systems.
As a foundation for other enhancements, PROJ now includes a C++ implementation
of the modelisation propopsed by the ISO-19111:2019 standard / OGC Abstract
Specification Topic 2: "Referencing By Coordinates", for geodetic reference
frames (datums), coordinate reference systems and coordinate operations.
Construction and query of those geodetic objects is available through a new C++
API, and also accessible for the most part from bindings in the C API.
Those geodetic objects can be imported and exported from and into the OGC
Well-Known Text format (WKT) in its different variants: ESRI WKT, GDAL WKT 1,
WKT2:2015 (ISO 19162:2015) and WKT2:2018 (ISO 19162:2018). Import and export of
CRS objects from and into PROJ strings is also supported. This functionality
was previously available in the GDAL software library (except WKT2 support
which is a new feature), and is now an integral part of PROJ.
A unified database of geodetic objects, coordinate reference systems and their
metadata, and coordinate operations between those CRS is now available in a
SQLite3 database file, proj.db. This includes definitions imported from the
IOGP EPSG dataset (v9.6.0 release), the IGNF (French national mapping agency)
geodetic registry and the ESRI projection engine database. PROJ is now the
reference software in the "OSGeo C stack" for this CRS and coordinate operation
database, whereas previously this functionality was spread over PROJ, GDAL and
libgeotiff, and used CSV or other adhoc text-based formats.
Late-binding coordinate operation capabilities, that takes metadata such as
area of use and accuracy into account, has been added. This can avoid in a
number of situations the past requirement of using WGS84 as a pivot system,
which could cause unneeded accuracy loss, or was not doable at all sometimes
when transformation to WGS84 was not available. Those late-binding capabilities
are now used by the proj_create_crs_to_crs() function and the cs2cs utility.
A new command line utility, projinfo, has been added to query information about
a geodetic object of the database, import and export geodetic objects from/into
WKT and PROJ strings, and display coordinate operations available between two
CRSs.

o Removed projects.h as a public interface (#835)
o Deprecated the proj_api.h interface. The header file is still available

(This is still being discussed on tech-pkg; apparently the previous
fix was not aware of the (rapidly moving around) discussion.)
Upstream chages (from CHANGELOG.md):
1.10.9 / 2020-03-01
Fixed
* [MRI] Raise an exception when Nokogiri detects a specific libxml2
edge case involving blank Schema nodes wrapped by Ruby objects
that would cause a segfault. Currently no fix is available upstream,
so we're preventing a dangerous operation and informing users to
code around it if possible. [#1985, #2001]
* [JRuby] Change NodeSet#to_a to return a RubyArray instead of Object,
for compilation under JRuby 9.2.9 and later. [#1968, #1969]
(Thanks, @headius!)
