Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fdr...@acm.org> added the comment: This change breaks existing uses of Python 2.6.4.
The mechanize library frequently re-initializes the data in the request without re-using the request. Applications (including tests) that use mechanize now break with this TypeError. The proper response to this issue for Python 2.6 is to make no code changes (though a documentation enhancement may be in order). This change should be reverted from all branches. Python 2.6.5 should be blocked until this is done. ---------- nosy: +fdrake status: closed -> open _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7540> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
