[New-bugs-announce] [issue5678] typo in future_builtins documentation

[Friedrich Weber]

New submission from Friedrich Weber <fred at reichbier.de>:

Hi,

from http://docs.python.org/library/future_builtins.html:

.. function:: oct(object)

   Works like the builtin :func:`oct`, but instead of :meth:`__oct__` it
will
   use the :meth:`__index__` method on its argument to get an integer
that is
   then converted to hexadecimal.

should rather be something like '... that is then converted to octal.'
