Nick Coghlan <ncogh...@gmail.com> added the comment: Prohibiting strings and bytes on the grounds of "Yes they're iterable, but are more likely intended as atomic here, so treat them as ambiguous and refuse to guess" would be fine. (Although I'll also note the classifier case will already fail on upload, since they won't be valid classifiers)
The only part I'm not OK with is upgrading a historically unenforced type restriction that only sometimes causes problems into an eagerly enforced one that breaks currently working code. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue19610> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
