[issue13865] distutils documentation says Extension has "optional" argument
by Éric Araujo 03 Feb '12

Éric Araujo <merwok(a)netwok.org> added the comment: It was me who ported that doc change from 3.2, but distutils in 2.7 does not provide that feature. Thanks for catching it, I’ll revert the commit when I get the chance. ---------- nosy: +eric.araujo _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13865> _______________________________________

[issue12902] help("modules") executes module code
by Terry J. Reedy 03 Feb '12

03 Feb '12

Terry J. Reedy <tjreedy(a)udel.edu> added the comment: #13902 is essentially a duplicate of this and I may close it. I am thinking now that executing unknown amounts of unknown code from unknown modules is a really bad idea. If a module just crashes the system, as happened with the OP of the above, there is no way to tell what the culprit is. So if we do not disable 'modules', I thing it should just read directory names and forget about docstrings. In any case, output should be flushed as available if not now. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12902> _______________________________________

[issue13927] Extra spaces in the output of time.ctime
by Eric V. Smith 02 Feb '12

02 Feb '12

Eric V. Smith <eric(a)trueblade.com> added the comment: That's definitely the expected behavior. It's the same as the C library version of ctime(). But I couldn't find it documented in the Python docs, so I'm changing this to a documentation issue. Thanks for the report. ---------- assignee: -> docs@python components: +Documentation -None nosy: +docs@python, eric.smith versions: +Python 3.2, Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13927> _______________________________________
