Barry A. Warsaw added the comment: Note that this change is causing problems with genshi due to API backward incompatibility. This is reported here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python2.7/+bug/1097783 The reason the user found it in Ubuntu first is that we track hg tip, but I've reproduced it in my own hg tip, and the diff of r80680 makes it pretty obvious. I'm not saying the change should necessarily be reverted, but it *is* a backward incompatibility, and at a minimum the NEWS file (and release notes for 2.7.4) should make it clear that the return types have changed. As we're seeing, it breaks at least one existing package. ---------- nosy: +barry _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10182> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
