- ##5258/#10642: print fn, line, traceback and continue when .pth file is broken
+ #5258/#10642: print fn, line, traceback and continue when .pth file is broken
 
- Previously site.py would end with a traceback and not complete the
- initialization of site-packages, but the interpreter would start.
- now site.py does as much initialization as it can, while reporting
- more useful information to help debug the problem in the .pth file.
+ If a .pth file contained an error, it could cause a traceback in site.py,
+ terminating its processing. In 2.7 and 3.2, the interpreter will then not
+ start. Previously, a message would print saying to use -v to get the
+ traceback. In either case, the traceback generated for a failed .pth file did
+ not include the .pth filename, making it difficult to debug the problem. Now
+ site.py reports not only the .pth filename but also the line number causing the
+ error, and just skips the remainder of the file.
