Using Python Help Throws Segfault

Post a Comment
While using Python help I typed modules and got the following error: help> modules Please wait a moment while I gather a list of all available modules... /usr/lib/python2.7/

Solution 1:

Such "lists of modules" (pydoc -k too) require importing everything available into one process and this may cause all kinds of problems. Don't do that.
