bz2file's Issues

'bz2file' not being recognized from PYTHONPATH

On extracting the bz2file's source (tar.gz) and placing the folder's path in PYTHONPATH, I expected bz2file to be visible to other python scripts. But I faced the following error while installing a library smart_open 1.3.4 from source. Using the version bz2file-0.98 with Python 2.6.6. This problem is however not reflected with other libraries that I was trying to use.

PS : This machine has no connectivity to internet, hence the download errors.

Since Python 3.7, threading is always available

bz2file's test suite blocks the threading module to simulate systems where threads aren't available.
Since Python 3.7, Python no longer supports systems without threads; the threading module is always available. The test fails with RuntimeError errors in Python 3.8.0 beta 2.
