[issue11047] Bad description for a change

New submission from Oren Held <oren@held.org.il>: In the "what's new in 2.7", there is some mistake in the description of issue 7902. 7902, afaik, disables the fallback to absolute import, when requesting a relative import fails. If I got it right, the description states the opposite. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation files: whatsnew_issue_7902_fix.patch keywords: patch messages: 127317 nosy: Oren_Held, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Bad description for a change versions: Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file20577/whatsnew_issue_7902_fix.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11047> _______________________________________

Sandro Tosi <sandro.tosi@gmail.com> added the comment: Hello, the patch seems indeed to fix a "reverse" description of issue 7902. Was there a reason (given the quite long list of nosy people) why it was not applied? "lack of time" doesn't count :) ---------- nosy: +ezio.melotti, sandro.tosi stage: -> commit review versions: +Python 3.2, Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11047> _______________________________________
