New submission from Deokhwan Kim <[email protected]>:
There is a minor typo in Lib/urllib/request.py:thishost(). Because of it, the
thishost() function is returning a garbage value:
>>> import urllib.request
>>> urllib.request.thishost()
('XXXXXXX.XXXXX.XXX.com', ['X.XXXXX.XXX.com'], ['123.45.67.89'])
It is expected to return the IP addresses of the current host, so the correct
return value would be like:
>>> urllib.request.thishost.__doc__
'Return the IP addresses of the current host.'
>>> urllib.request.thishost()
('127.0.0.1', '127.0.1.1')
The attached patch will fix the mistake .
