The message ID is returned lowercased and there is no way to access
the original ID the server sent. Now at least some news servers
are very picky about the case of the ID and return errors when
fetching articles with mixed case given a lowercased version
of the ID.
The solution is simple: remove the string.lower() call.
"""
(I might add that the lowercasing was probably introduced as a result
of sloppy copy-and-paste coding; there's a string.lower in a similar
piece of code a bit higher in the source, that makes more sense --
it's lowercasing the group name.)
After a version by Fredrik Lundh that I found on the web somewhere.
(I like mine better, but of course that may have to do with my alcohol
consumption. :-)
yours, please let me know for propoer acknowledgement.)
This avoids recompiling files that haven't changed; it adds a -f
option to force recompilation.
- Fixed a bug where a syntax error was reported when a document
started with white space. (White space at the start of a document
is valid if there is no XML declaration.)
- Improved the speed quite a bit for documents that don't make use of
namespaces.
NOTE: There is still a bug of some sort in the behavior of zlib. In
at least one case, inflate returns Z_OK (which is typically
interpreted to mean that more output space is needed) when it has
finished inflating a buffer. This has been reported as a bug to the
zlib maintainers; we may need to change the Python interface.
Here is my current version of xmllib.py and the documentation. This
version has some API changes with respect to the version currently in
Python (also the one in 1.5.2a).
This version supports XML namespaces.
File names with "funny" characters get translated wrong by
pathname2url (any variety). E.g. the (Unix) file "/ufs/sjoerd/#tmp"
gets translated into "/ufs/sjoerd/#tmp" which, when interpreted as a
URL is file "/ufs/sjoerd/" with fragment ID "tmp".
Here's an easy fix. (An alternative fix would be to change the
various implementations of pathname2url and url2pathname to include
calls to quote and unquote.
[The main problem is with the normal use of URLs:
url = url2pathname(file)
transmit url
url, tag = splittag(url)
urlopen(url)
]
In addition, this patch fixes some uses of unquote:
- the host part of URLs should be unquoted
- the file path in the FTP URL should be unquoted before it is split
into components.
- because of the latter, I removed all unquoting from ftpwrapper,
and moved it to the caller, but that is not essential
string we find ourselves in, based on the passed in delimiter.
(py-compute-indentation): Fixes for indentation errors when we land
inside a triple quoted string. For example:
def foo():
if os.path.isfile(o_pri_mbox_file) and os.path.isfile(o_pub_mbox_file):
print """\
I found both a private and a public mbox archive file
private: %s
public : %s
I won't move either file, but you should choose one and move it to
%s
You may want to merge them manually, but be careful about exposing private
correspondences to the public.""" % (
o_pri_mbox_file, o_pub_mbox_file, mbox_file)
*----indentation would be wrong on this line.
to color constants (i.e. red constant, green constant, blue
constant). But I haven't hooked this up yet because the UI gets more
crowded and the arrows don't reflect the correct values.
Added "Go to Black" and "Go to White" buttons.

Caused by using just 'char' where 'unsigned char' should have been used.
buffer increment, and sometimes the new buffer size. Make it do what
its name says, and fix the one place where this matters to the caller.
Also add a comment explaining why we call lseek() and then ftell().
But IMHO, this problem really reveals an annoyance in Python's
makesetup. makesetup puts the global include directories "$(INCLUDEPY)
$(EXECINCLUDEPY)" in front of the directories defined by the module in
Setup. Therefore global (potentially older) header files are preferred
over the ones set by the module, which makes it hard to compile new
versions of modules when the old versions are installed. AFAIK, the
other way around is common practice for most other software.
This patch to makesetup would be an potential fix for this problem,
though I don't know if it breaks anything else.
<moduleinfo> element based on various meta information, and
strip some cruftiness. This is more usable for information
extraction, and organizes the information more clearly.
cleanup_synopses(): Rewrite to use create_module_info(), so this
will work with multi-rooted "documents".
