New submission from Ned Deily: Something went wrong with the update of pydoc_data topics for 3.4.1rc1. As can be seen in http://hg.python.org/releasing/3.4.1/rev/c67a19e11a71, the values for the topics dict should be strings but were updated as bytes. This causes pydoc topics searches to fail. The process problem needs to be fixed for 3.4.1 final.
An example: $ /usr/local/bin/pydoc3.4 def Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/pydoc3.4", line 5, in <module> pydoc.cli() File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4/lib/python3.4/pydoc.py", line 2580, in cli help.help(arg) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4/lib/python3.4/pydoc.py", line 1860, in help elif request in self.keywords: self.showtopic(request) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4/lib/python3.4/pydoc.py", line 1941, in showtopic pager(doc.strip() + '\n') TypeError: can't concat bytes to str ---------- assignee: larry components: Build messages: 217887 nosy: georg.brandl, larry, ned.deily priority: release blocker severity: normal status: open title: 3.4.1rc1 test_pydoc fails: pydoc_data.topics.topics values are type "bytes" not "str" versions: Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21431> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
