Demian Brecht added the comment: This doesn't seem to be an issue in 3.4+, the following headers are injected in a call to urlopen():
GET / HTTP/1.1 Accept-Encoding: identity Host: example.com User-Agent: Python-urllib/3.4 Connection: close However, this is not the same behaviour in 2.7: GET / HTTP/1.0 Host: example.com User-Agent: Python-urllib/1.17 That said, I wouldn't see this as a bug but a feature request, so it should be invalid for 2.7. Setting this to pending to close unless anyone has any objections or further details. ---------- nosy: +demian.brecht status: open -> pending _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8732> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
