Comment (by harrim4n): Until (if) this is implemented, I suggest adding a check when .get(), .filter() etc. are called on such a QS. Currently the error messages (if there are any) do not explain the issue, the only way to find out about this is in the documentation of the QS API, section union(). Example: {{{ qs1 = User.objects.all() qs2 = User.objects.filter(username="nonexistant") qs3 = qs1.difference(qs2) print(qs1) print(qs2) print(qs3) print(qs1.get(id=1)) print(qs3.get(id=1)) }}} This fails with (could be any number instead of 4, of course) {{{ MultipleObjectsReturned: get() returned more than one User -- it returned 4! }}} Even worse, if the difference of qs1 and qs2 only contains one element, this element is returned when calling qs3.get(id=1) without any error message, even though the objects ID is not 1. -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/28519#comment:4> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
