Replacing Num/Str/... with Constant causes bug in markerlib (used by pip, it breaks indirectly the venv module of the stdlib) and Chameleon benchmark. I only found these projects by mistake. I'm quite sure that much more code rely on the AST "API" even if it's unstable. I prefer to not break the API for free :-) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26146> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
