Eric V. Smith added the comment: Barry meant that the upstream program that triggered this error has been changed to call format_string() instead of format(). The bug still exists in format().
My suggestion is to have format() be an alias for format_string(). Deprecating format() is an optional step, but may not be worth the hassle. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10379> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
