24212	Documentation for pylibmc cache backend needs additional info	Jay Hargis	Bryan Marty	"Looking at the docs you'd assume that this would work for socket connections to memcached via pylibmc..

{{{#!python

CACHES = {
    'default': {
        'BACKEND': 'django.core.cache.backends.memcached.PyLibMCCache',
        'LOCATION': 'unix:/tmp/memcached.sock',
    }
}

}}}

but it doesn't unless you drop the unix prefix

{{{#!python

CACHES = {
    'default': {
        'BACKEND': 'django.core.cache.backends.memcached.PyLibMCCache',
        'LOCATION': '/tmp/memcached.sock',
    }
}

}}}

Searching the web there is very little mention of this. Would be helpful to see the distinction in the docs."	Bug	closed	Documentation	1.7	Normal	fixed			Accepted	1	0	0	0	0	0
