There are several recent question on Stackoverflow about
SystemError: new style getargs format but argument is not a tuple
[snip]
Resulting from using 3rd party packages.
No one commenting has a clue. Is message from Victor's new calling
code? Was it backported to 2.7? Could error be a result of running old
3rd party binary that needs to be recompiled?
A system error "new style getargs format but argument is not a tuple" is
not new. It means that PyArg_ParseTuple() is called with not a tuple as
the first arguments. This is just a programmical error in third-party
extension.
Should the advice in the doc entry for SystemError be changed to include
this case?
" You should report this to the author or maintainer of your Python
interpreter. Be sure to report the version of the Python interpreter
(sys.version; it is also printed at the start of an interactive Python
session), the exact error message (the exception’s associated value) and
if possible the source of the program that triggered the error.
