A.M. Kuchling added the comment: Here's a patch against 3.5. This patch is atop the fix for #17898, so it won't apply cleanly to a stock 3.5.
The patch uses warnings.warn() to issue a warning if the plural header is empty. There seems to be precedent for issuing warnings in the case of odd incoming data or behaviour, so I'm comfortable doing this; I think that warnings need not be only for Python language features, like deprecated things. But this does mean that importing gettext will also import warnings as a result, increasing memory usage. Probably this doesn't matter -- on any sizable program, you probably already have the warnings module imported. Otherwise we could print to sys.stderr. ---------- nosy: +akuchling Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file38918/issue12425.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12425> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
