ValueError: Module-relative files may not have absolute paths
Okay, so this is because the check is this little gem: if path.startswith('/'): raise ValueError, 'Module-relative files may not have absolute paths' Cross platform FAIL :-( A few questions: - how can this actually be written in a cross platform way? Absolute paths start with a drive letter on Windows, no? - why are absolute paths bad here anyway? The code that causes this problem was: return DocFileSuite( optionflags=REPORT_NDIFF|ELLIPSIS, *glob(join(dirname(__file__),pardir,'docs','*.txt')) ) I have a nagging feeling this has come up before, but still, the above seems to be viable if maybe not preferred? - where do I report the cross platform bug? Python core tracker? What about zope.testing? Where does its tracker live now? cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Batch Processing & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk
