New submission from Eli Collins <e...@assurancetechnologies.com>: The _pop_values() function in packaging.config uses "--" as the environment marker separator when parsing extension sections. This doesn't match PEP 345, or how the metadata section is currently parsed, both of which use ";" instead. Also, "--" is frequently found in compiler option strings, which will probably cause conflicts in the future.
The attached patch changes _pop_values() and related unit tests to use ";" as the separator, as well as tries to clarify some of _pop_values()'s internal comments. ---------- assignee: tarek components: Distutils2 messages: 139339 nosy: alexis, eli.collins, eric.araujo, tarek priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: distutils2: extension section uses bad environment marker separator type: behavior versions: Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12424> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
