Jython, version 2.7b1, does not support the buffer buildin, which is needed in the django/utils/six.py. However memoryview is supported, which can be used in this case.

It's not clear to me this is a bug we should be fixing; how is the omission of buffer not a Jython bug? Is that considered an optional interface for Python implementations?

comment:3 by andreas@…, 13 years ago

buffer is part of the so called "Non-essential Built-in Functions" (​http://docs.python.org/2/library/functions.html#non-essential-built-in-functions), so I guess it would be OK for Django to cope with the absence of this buildin.
