New submission from Aleksey Bilogur: Copied over from an unanswered StackOverflow thread (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/42542433/why-does-python-mimetype-guess-xsl-when-passed-an-xml-file):
When passed a file with a mimetype application/xml, the Python std lib mimetypes.guess_extension method guesses an .xsl extension. This is actually hard-coded in. This seems wrong to me. But what do I know? ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 289705 nosy: Aleksey Bilogur priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: ython guesses XSL mimetype when passed an XML file versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.3, Python 3.4, Python 3.5, Python 3.6, Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29823> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
