New submission from Brett Cannon <br...@python.org>: Importlib uses the errno module explicitly for properly checking OSError for EEXIST and IOError for EACCES. Thanks to PEP 3151, however, neither check is needed since those exceptions correspond to FileExistsError and PermissionError, respectively.
As long as posix.mkdir() uses the new exceptions, the entire need for errno goes away for the module, eliminating one more module required for bootstrapping. ---------- assignee: brett.cannon components: Library (Lib) keywords: easy messages: 146317 nosy: brett.cannon priority: normal severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: Move importlib over to PEP 3151 exceptions type: behavior versions: Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13257> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
