Description John Whitlock 2004-07-12 08:46:42 UTC 
The moinmoin package (Python wikiwiki) causes the following error in the apache error log (/var/log/apache/error_log):

[error header] /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/MoinMoin/util/filesys.py:106: FutureWarning: hex/oct constants > sys.maxint will return positive values in Python 2.4 and up
[error header]   __highbits = 0xffff0000  # XXX FIXME, gives Python2.3 warning.

Fix is to change line 106:
__highbits = 0xffff0000
to:
__highbits = long("0xffff0000", 16)
Comment 1 John Whitlock 2004-07-14 13:14:06 UTC 
Fix is wrong - should be
__highbits = long("0xffff0000", 32)
because, of course, 0xffff0000 is a 32-bit value.

Upstream is aware, should be fixed in 1.3
