cdist is written in python 3 and makes heavy use of argparse. One common task is to run a cdist type with some arguments, which in the end configure a remote system. We triggered the bug by running __line ps1 --file /etc/bash.bashrc --line "PS1='[\t] \[\033[1m\]\h\[\033[0m\]:\w\$ '" which should have ensured that the line is found in /etc/bash.bashrc. But in reality we found PS1='[\t] \[\033[1m\]\h\[\033[0m\]:\w$ ' instead of PS1='[\t] \[\033[1m\]\h\[\033[0m\]:\w\$ ' This is a rather nasty bug, as you would not suspect argparse doing that and dig through all your code looking for errors. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19430> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
