Hi,

     failure accessing depot: unknown error code info

When I run "p4 login -s" from a shell it reports:

     'login' not necessary, no password set for this user.

The following patch fixes the problem for me:

@@ -332,6 +332,8 @@
              die_bad_access("p4 error: {0}".format(data))
          else:
              die_bad_access("unknown error")
+    elif code == "info":
+        return
      else:
          die_bad_access("unknown error code {0}".format(code))


Not sure if this helps, but running "p4 -G login -s | hexdump" gives:
