Overview
Request 1008606 accepted
- Update to 0.1.47
Following is the changelog for deb822 before it was merged into python-debian.
* deb822.py:
- Allow Deb822 objects to be initialized with a dict containing the initial
key-value pairs.
- _multivalued class:
+ Make all the multivalued dicts Deb822Dict objects, so the keys are
case-preserving, but case-insensitive
- Add a Release class, which knows about Release-file multivalued fields.
Thanks to Alexandre Fayolle. (Closes: 428540)
- Deb822Dict no longer directly subclasses dict. All of the important
methods were already implemented with userdict.DictMixin; the dict
subclass was so that Python would see a Deb822Dict instance as a dict
instance. Unfortunately, this causes confusion if you do something like
d = dict(Deb822Dict({'foo': 'bar'})
The "Pythonic" way to check for a dictionary interface is to check for
the 'items' attribute.
* test_deb822.py:
- Add a test case for deriving a Python dict from a Deb822Dict.
* debian/control:
- Add a XS-Vcs-Bzr field
- Created by yarunachalam
- In state accepted
