I've seen this new error message cross my mailbox a few times. On the face of it, it's incorrect, because you can append any sort of object to a list, right? This message appears in the list_concat method. Shouldn't it be something like
can't concatenate \"%.200s\" object with list
Skip, You're right! How about:
can only concatenate list (not \"%.200s\") to list
If you don't object by the time this mail reaches you, I'll check it in. ;)
Then you'd better do something about tupleobject.c as well; I'd also say
can only concatenate list (not "%.200s") and list can only concatenate tuple (not "%.200s") and tuple
are slightly preferable, on reflection (note the s/to/and/).
