[issue38374] Remove weakref.ReferenceError entry from documentation
New submission from Martijn Pieters <mj@python.org>: The weakref documentation still mentions weakref.ReferenceError: https://docs.python.org/3/library/weakref.html#weakref.ReferenceError But this alias for the built-in ReferenceError exception was removed in the 3.0 development cycle (https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/2633c69fae7e413b2b64b01d8c0c901ae64...), the last version where `weakref.ReferenceError` still exists is Python 2.7. Please remove it, it's just confusing now. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 353977 nosy: docs@python, mjpieters priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Remove weakref.ReferenceError entry from documentation versions: Python 3.6, Python 3.7, Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue38374> _______________________________________
