I'm not sure if OS updates have overridden that version.\r\n- Machine B never received any manual updates, uses OS version.\r\n\r\nIt appears to be independent of #607, and I guess it's a regression.\r\n\r\nDoing the same in plain python2 or python3 works flawlessly and quickly.","author":{"url":"https://github.com/BenWiederhake","@type":"Person","name":"BenWiederhake"},"datePublished":"2017-08-23T15:46:02.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":10},"url":"https://github.com/703/bpython/issues/703"}
