Where is cPickle?

[JOM]

I was trying to install figleaf (used for code coverage), but this problem got me really stopped:

import cPickle

Output:

ImportError: No Module named cPickle

PyS60 1.4.2 sources contain file cPickle.c in core/Modules folder. It seemed logical that the library would be built-in, but now I don't know what to think. The build file core/core.mmp.in does NOT mention that file at all!

Did I understand correctly that cPickle is not available in PyS60?

You did. Use Python pickle or repr.

Also, pickle does not work from non main threads since __import__() function will crash. You need to patch pickle.py a bit if you want to use it outside the main thread.

Just wondering: is there any way to get/offer/put patches into next official PyS60 releases?
