Georg Brandl <ge...@python.org> added the comment: The compiler package is surprisingly often used; we already had complaints when (I think) 2.6 began emitting lots of new DeprecationWarnings, but for modules/APIs whose replacements was straightforward.
Replacing usage of the compiler package is usually not straightforward, since the AST differs from Python's own, and the API for accessing it even more. This means that lots of code will continue spewing out these warnings. However, a more visible notice in the docs would not hurt, I guess. ---------- nosy: +georg.brandl _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6837> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
