Re: [Duplicity-talk] apparent memory leak on OS X

[tono]

Thanks for the responses. I didn't notice a pileup of gpg processes but
I'll double-check.

It seems like there are two different Python binaries at play, the one
in the script header and the one in my $PATH. 


$ head -1 /opt/local/bin/duplicity
#!/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python

$ which python
/opt/local/bin/python
MetroMBP06:~ tony$ ls -ld /opt/local/bin/python
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  admin  24 Nov 15 09:03 /opt/local/bin/python ->
/opt/local/bin/python2.7
MetroMBP06:~ tony$ ls -ld /opt/local/bin/python2.7
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  admin  73 Nov 15 09:00 /opt/local/bin/python2.7 ->
/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/python2.7

Both binaries report 2.7.2 although the file sizes differ slightly:

$ ls -l
/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python
\
> /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/python2.7
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  24924 Nov 15 09:00
/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  25564 Nov 15 09:00
/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/python2.7

I'll try again tonight, changing the #! line to match the default
install in my $PATH.
