[issue24128] Documentation links are forwarded to Python 2
R. David Murray added the comment: I believe that this is intentional, so that old deep links do not break. Georg can say for sure. -- nosy: +georg.brandl, r.david.murray ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue24128 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue24128] Documentation links are forwarded to Python 2
New submission from levkivskyi: Links to Python library documentation such as: http://docs.python.org/library/functions.html http://docs.python.org/library/itertools.html http://docs.python.org/library/functools.html etc. are automatically forwarded to the Python 2 versions, namely to: https://docs.python.org/2/library/functions.html https://docs.python.org/2/library/itertools.html https://docs.python.org/2/library/functools.html At the same time docs.python.org is forwarded to Python 3 version https://docs.python.org/3/ I believe that all the documentation links should be forwarded to the current version that is Python 3. -- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation, Library (Lib) messages: 242613 nosy: docs@python, levkivskyi priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Documentation links are forwarded to Python 2 type: behavior versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.4, Python 3.5 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue24128 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

This is intentional. All new links to Python documentation should include the version number. To keep existing old links to the documentation working, they redirect to the Python 2 version of the documentation. -- nosy: +lemburg ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue24128 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

levkivskyi added the comment: Is it possible to check whether the Python 3 version exists and redirect to it and if not (like for http://docs.python.org/library/fpformat.html) then redirect to Python 2 ? -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue24128 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

R. David Murray added the comment: That would defeat the purpose. Existing links are intending to point to python2, not python3. -- resolution: - not a bug stage: - resolved status: open - closed ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue24128 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
