higery <shoulderhigher at gmail.com> added the comment:

I have run the 'test_install_lib' on cpython3.3(windows version), the
'test_install_error' failed.

The detail is:

*FAIL: test_install_error (__main__.InstallLibTestCase)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "D:\add-develop-command\Lib\distutils\tests\test_install_lib.py",
line 112, in test_install_error
    cmd.run()
AssertionError: DistutilsFileError not raised*

The corresponding lines are:
*
with self.assertRaises(DistutilsFileError) as cm:
        cmd.run()*
