Package: python2.3
Version: 2.3.4-18

from xml.dom.minidom import parseString
parseString('<item rdf:about="TMOIGDA5VKY4G4LZGIHPBL5ZZG76TOR4">...</item>')

this script stopped working with python 2.3.4
(Python 2.3.4 (#2, Dec  3 2004, 13:53:17)

it used to work up to version Python 2.3.4 (#2, Sep 24 2004, 08:39:09)
[Debian Version 2.3.4-13]

it looks like xmlns is turned on by default, adding 
xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"; it works again.

---
from xml.dom.minidom import parseString
parseString('''
<item 
 xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#";
 rdf:about="TMOIGDA5VKY4G4LZGIHPBL5ZZG76TOR4">
...
</item>
''')
---

namespace checks should not cause parseString or parse to fail!

python2.4 has been obsoleted in Debian long ago. I'm now closing the
remaining bugs against this ancient version, assuming they have been
fixed (or became irrelevant) in newer releases.

Feel free to provide more information and reopen the bugs if they are
still reproducible in the current versions (python2.7, python3.x).


Andreas
