I guess the test assumes that stdin is a tty. It seems like it should check that sys.stding.isatty() returns True before making that assumption.
I have the same failure with test_file.py even though I do not use --jobs yet.
(In reply to comment #2) > I have the same failure with test_file.py even though I do not use --jobs yet. --quiet can also trigger it.
As a workaround, I've patched python-2.5.2-r7 and up to redirect stdin from /dev/tty when running tests.
The code from bug #278895 is triggering '/dev/tty: No such device or address' errors now, so we're going to have to patch the test to use a 'if sys.stdin.isatty()' conditional.
