Description Dirk Pranke 2011-02-15 20:04:51 PST

Or, at least, we get lots of failures in these two packages when we run test-webkitpy. This isn't real surprising, since in addition to all of the os.path.sep issues we're likely to hit, we can't guarantee consistently that svn and/or git are installed.

If there is a consensus that we do want these to work in native win32 environments (and not just cygwin), then I will post more details and we can figure out how hard getting them to work might be. For now, in the roll-up patch on bug 48728, I'm just planning to skip these directories completely.

Wow, the hack in test/main.py for this is awful!

_win32_blacklist

cuts out a bunch of tests. :(
