[New-bugs-announce] [issue45349] configparser.ConfigParser: 2 newlines at end of file (EOF)

[Boštjan Mejak]

New submission from Boštjan Mejak <bostjan.xperia at gmail.com>:

In every Python version that I've tested, writing a config.ini file (utilizing configparser.ConfigParser), the result is such that the config.ini file has 2 newlines at the end of the file.

The problem is that source code editors like Sublime Text, or IDEs like PyCharm, already insert a newline at the end of a file, but then configparser.ConfigParser 
(or maybe the Python's write() function?)  insert its own as well.

Is it possible to fix this behavior?
