S Arrowsmith <si...@chiark.greenend.org.uk> added the comment: I've dug into it -- again -- and my original analysis still holds. Getting consistent guess_extension() results across an explicit init() call depends on dict.items() returning keys in the same order on two different dictionaries (the original, hard-coded types_map and the one created by the first, implicit init() call).
Why should this be different on Debian to other Linuxes, even given same data as a "working" distribution? Is there something in the implementation details of dict.items() which is that distribution dependent? (A "fix", BTW, is to insert a call to _default_mime_types() either in init() or in MimeTypes.__init__ before it calls init().) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4963> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
