Bug 103661 – webkitpy's run_webkit_tests should initialize the printer earlier on

• Component: Tools / Tests
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Peter Beverloo]

Before creating the Printer, which creates the MeteredStream that handles the log messages run_webkit_tests.py's run() sets up derived options. _set_up_derived_options() calls various methods on the Port objects. As this is done without a printer, they aren't able to use normal loggers and have to resort to writing to stderr directly.

There are FIXMEs in at least the Mac and Chromium-Android Ports, and the Chromium-Android Port imports "sys" for this reason alone.

We could log the actual error. :)
