New submission from Michael Foord <mich...@voidspace.org.uk>:
>>> try:
... open('flooble')
... except Exception as e:
... pass
...
[39343 refs]
>>> str(e)
"[Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'flooble'"
[39345 refs]
>>> unicode(e)
u"(2, 'No such file or directory')"
The Unicode representation of an IOError has no information about the
file or directory name. This is a regression from 2.5. Would be nice to
backport a fix to 2.6 if we can.
This bit docutils - and can happen as a side-effect of interpolating
into a Unicode string with %s. The filename information is lost from the
error report.
