I ended-up not modifying the docs because I think it clutters that clarity with an irrelevant side issue. The more important part was to make sure the error message wasn't misleading and the test that edge case. I didn't backport to Python 2.7 because I don't think it meets the threshold of being interesting enough to warrant a backport to an old release. ---------- resolution: -> fixed status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue28475> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
