Package: python-yaml Version: 3.08-1 Severity: normal
Given a small input file, such as - &anchor 1 - &anchor 1 yaml.load() dies with an error: yaml.composer.ComposerError: found duplicate anchor 'anchor'; first occurence in "<string>", line 1, column 3: - &anchor 1 ^ second occurence in "<string>", line 2, column 3: - &anchor 1 ^ This ought to be allowed; the YAML 1.1 spec says in 3.2.2.2: When composing a representation graph from serialized events, an alias node refers to the most recent node in the serialization having the specified anchor. Therefore, anchors need not be unique within a serialization. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages python-yaml depends on: ii libc6 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libyaml-0-1 0.1.2-1 Fast YAML 1.1 parser and emitter l ii python 2.5.2-3 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-central 0.6.8 register and build utility for Pyt python-yaml recommends no packages. python-yaml suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
