python2.7 (2.7.12-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Update to 20160804 from the 2.7 branch.
    - Issue #27473: Fixed possible integer overflow in str, unicode and
      bytearray concatenations and repetitions.
    - Issue #27507: Add integer overflow check in bytearray.extend().
    - Issue #27581: Don't rely on wrapping for overflow check in
      PySequence_Tuple().
    - Issue #23908: os functions, open() and the io.FileIO constructor now
      reject unicode paths with embedded null character on Windows instead of
      silently truncating them.
    - Issue #27514: Make having too many statically nested blocks a SyntaxError
      instead of SystemError.
    - Issue #27568: Prevent HTTPoxy attack (CVE-2016-1000110). Ignore the
      HTTP_PROXY variable when REQUEST_METHOD environment is set, which
      indicates that the script is in CGI mode.
    - Issue #27130: In the "zlib" module, fix handling of large buffers
      (typically 2 or 4 GiB).  Previously, inputs were limited to 2 GiB, and
      compression and decompression operations did not properly handle results
      of 2 or 4 GiB.
    - Issue #23804: Fix SSL zero-length recv() calls to not block and not raise
      an error about unclean EOF.
    - Issue #27466: Change time format returned by http.cookie.time2netscape,
      confirming the netscape cookie format and making it consistent with
      documentation.
    - Issue #22115: Fixed tracing Tkinter variables: trace_vdelete() with wrong
      mode no longer break tracing, trace_vinfo() now always returns a list of
      pairs of strings.
    - Issue #27079: Fixed curses.ascii functions isblank(), iscntrl() and
      ispunct().
    - Issue #22636: Avoid shell injection problems with
      ctypes.util.find_library().
    - Issue #27330: Fixed possible leaks in the ctypes module.
    - Issue #27238: Got rid of bare excepts in the turtle module.
    - Issue #26386: Fixed ttk.TreeView selection operations with item id's
      containing spaces.
    - Issue #25455: Fixed a crash in repr of cElementTree.Element with
      recursive tag.
    - Issue #27365: Allow non-ascii chars in IDLE NEWS.txt, for contributor
      names.
    - Issue #27245: IDLE: Cleanly delete custom themes and key bindings.
      Previously, when IDLE was started from a console or by import, a cascade
      of warnings was emitted.
    - Issue #16484: Change the default PYTHONDOCS URL to "https:", and fix the
      resulting links to use lowercase.
    - Issue #27369: In test_pyexpat, avoid testing an error message detail that
      changed in Expat 2.2.0.
  * Fix issue 27239, idlelib: macos _tk_type shall always be "other".
    Closes: #830686.
  * Ignore the winreg module for the set of minimal modules. Closes: #830573.
