Re: [PyMOL] Race condition when running scripts in "stdin" mode

Michael
I've run in to something like this before (early ubuntu 12.04) using just using build_seq to write small peptide .pdbs in a loop, the work around I used (I think it was in the wiki at the time -- can't find it now) was to add a short wait at the end of the loop, <0.1 sec was enough on my machine at the time but that may be device/content specific.

**not my skill set**
IF I recall correctly the issue was explained as having a new run on the loop before the buffer on the old cleared (memory:cycles racing)
 
Hope this helps

Hi,

on Debian, we got a bug report which looks like the bug reported here as
well: http://sourceforge.net/p/pymol/bugs/130/

Unfortunately, there has been no discussion of this bug so far.

There seems to be some race condition for scripts, does anybody a
work-around, and/or fix for this?  Or is this a platform-dependent (or
even Debian/Ubuntu dependent) issue?


Thanks,

Michael

Hi MIchael,

I can reproduce the error on a machine with Ubuntu 15.04 (64 bits) and
PyMOL 1.7.2
