Public bug reported:

Hi,

In /usr/share/doc/python-xkit/examples I find examples about how to use
xkit. It says the following:

    '''Get the position of the Device section identified as 'Configured Video 
Device''''
    print 'Position of "Configured Video Device" =', a.getIdentifier('Device', 
'Configured Video Device')

So I do:

>>> from XKit import xorgparser
>>> from XKit.xorgparser import *
>>> import sys
>>> import os
>>> destination = os.path.join(os.path.expanduser('~'), 'xorgnew.txt')
>>> source = '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'
>>> a = Parser(source)
>>> a.getIdentifier('Device', 'Radeon HD 3870')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/XKit/xorgparser.py", line 1157, in 
getIdentifier
    errorMsg = 'No identifier can be found for section "%s" No %d' %(section, 
position)
TypeError: %d format: a number is required, not str

Still:

>>> a.getIdentifier('Device', 0)
'Radeon HD 3870'

Is the example wrong or is it a bug?
