Łukasz Langa added the comment: For the record, the bug that caused the following to be equivalent:
parser['DEFAULT'] = {'option': 'value'} parser['DEFAULT'].update({'option': 'value'}) has been fixed for 3.3.1+ only. This way it's going to be easier for users to reason about the fix ("it was broken in 3.2.0 - 3.3.0"). Note that the bug only affected __setitem__ on the default section. ---------- resolution: -> fixed stage: -> committed/rejected status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16820> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
