New submission from Patrick Andrew <pand...@isilon.com>: When a package list is built using Unicode strings, distutils fails to build the package with a TypeError.
This patch alternatively checks for 'unicode' as the instance type and also prints the type in the type error for easier debugging. ---------- assignee: tarek components: Distutils files: patch-Lib-distutils-command-build_py.py messages: 152643 nosy: eric.araujo, patrick.andrew, tarek priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Lib/distutils/command/build_py fails when package string is unicode versions: Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file24422/patch-Lib-distutils-command-build_py.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13943> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
