On approximately 12/1/2008 11:29 PM, came the following characters from
the keyboard of Martin v. Löwis:
It would be nice if the ftypes were version specific as created by the
installer; IIRC, I created the above three from the ftype Python.File as
I installed each version.
That's a good idea; please submit a wish list item to bugs.python.org.
There may be issues (such as people relying on this being Python.File),
but I can't see any problems off-hand.
Regards,
Martin
OK, Issue 4485 created. My first one, so let me know if I goofed. I
elaborated a bit from the original email, upon reflection. Seemed
useful, but also seemed complex by the time I got done.
I don't really have a clue what the uninstaller should do with these;
nor have I fiddled to know if it presently removes Python.File. I
suppose it should delete them, if and only if the ftype and assoc have
the same content as was created by the corresponding version installation.
