[Bug 525547] Re: [FFe] Please sync dlr-languages 20090805+git.e6b28d27+dfsg-1 from Debian unstable (main)

[Savvas Radevic]

I backported ironpython (2.6 Beta 2 DEBUG (2.6.0.20)) for karmic and
lucid and tested it on both ubuntu 9.10 and daily build of future 10.04.
I noticed two "bugs" (inconveniences might be a better word):

1. The command "import sys; print(sys.path)" doesn't contain python-2.6
directories by default. The older ironpython (1.1.1) does. Is this
deliberate?

2. In the interactive shell, ctrl-z doesn't close the app anymore, I
have  to use "killall -9 ipy" as well. However, "import sys; sys.exit()"
works! This reply in a bug report saved the day: http://bugs.debian.org
/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=516396#15

The log for the first point:
$ ipy
IronPython 2.6 Beta 2 DEBUG (2.6.0.20) on .NET 2.0.50727.1433
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import sys
>>> sys.path
['.', '/home/forger', '/usr/lib/ironpython/Lib', '/usr/lib/ironpython/DLLs', '/usr/lib/ironpython']
>>> sys.exit()

$ apt-cache policy ironpython

[ After downgrading to 1.1.1 ]

Other than that, it looks pretty stable to me!
