[New-bugs-announce] [issue37359] test_regrtest: test_list_cases() fails on x86 Gentoo Installed with X 3.x

[STINNER Victor]

New submission from STINNER Victor <vstinner at redhat.com>:

The root issue is likely related to "RuntimeWarning: tests may fail, unable to create temporary directory '/buildbot/tmp/tmpdir/test_python_28144': [Errno 17] File exists".

I don't know if a previous buildbot run forgot to remove this directory, or if it's a race condition in test_regrtest?
