-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2011-3145 2011-03-12 04:22:09 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : python-unicodenazi Product : Fedora 15 Version : 1.1 Release : 1.fc15 URL : http://pypi.python.org/pypi/unicode-nazi Summary : Module that finds unicode/bytestring comparisons and other problems Description : A common source of unicode issues in python2 is that code mixes str and unicode and is valid for the cases the author tests for (because they only test with ASCII) but then throws an error when the code is used with non-ASCII strings. If enabled unicodenazi will complain when this mixing of unicode and byte str occurs. It's annoying as hell, has a huge runtime impact on performance, and will also complain about most of the stuff in the Python standard library. But it will point out some areas of your code that may traceback in python2 when given different data and make it easier to migrate to python3 where unicode and bytes no longer interoperate. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #683948 - Review Request: python-unicodenazi - Module that finds unicode/bytestring comparisions and other problems https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=683948 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
