Calculated refresh interval causes the time to drift behind

[Detegr]

Sleep on line 313 causes (at least on my machine) the time on i3status to drift behind. Also, if the interval is set e.g. to 5 seconds, the time advances only one second in one refresh, thus drifting the time behind 4 seconds per one refresh interval.

Hi Detegr, I understand you're running py3status with -n 5 when you speak of the interval. Unfortunately I've been unable to reproduce this behavior. Would you mind giving me:

• the version of python you're using
• the global configuration part of your i3status.conf

Thanks

Ok, I was able to reproduce only when i3status interval is lower than py3status'. I created the drift branch to address this issue. Could you try it please using this commit ?

Hi. Thanks for looking into the issue this fast. That commit seems to resolve the issue! Works as expected now, thank you :)

Hi, glad I could fix this problem, thanks a lot for reporting it. I just bumped py3status to v0.7 thanks to you :)
