Should this just be stderr=STDOUT?

That would be stderr=subprocess.STDOUT but that doesn't work.

Why does stderr=subprocess.STDOUT not work?

[ahe, 2012/10/29 12:59:39]

I don't know. We tried and it didn't work. However, it turned out that this
didn't work either.

[Emily Fortuna, 2012/10/29 16:17:56]

alternatively:
process = subprocess.Popen(args, stderr=subprocess.PIPE, stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
output, stderr = process.communicate()
print output
print stderr, as appropriate.

OR are you trying to get this output on Windows? If so, you probably need
shell=True/

Unfortunately, that would be a severe regression compared to the current
behavior. We want to see output incrementally.
 
Not that far yet. We were just trying to redirect stderr to stdout on Linux and
Mac.

         process.wait()
         if process.returncode != 0:
           print "BUILD FAILED"
