markup test with docutils failed

[Dirk Datzert <dummy@…>]

Hi,

I have python 2.5, docutils 0.5 and SVN-trunk (Rev 6066) Django installed. I run the django/contrib/markup/tests.py and I wondered that the docutils test failed.

Attached a fix for the bug !?

Regards,
Dirk

markup docutils test fix

This works as-is for docutils-0.4. Where are you getting docutils 0.5 from? The project home page lists this 0.4 as the current release, and there is no 0.5 tarball available for download.

[Dirk Datzert <dummy@…>]

There will no separate docutils 0.5 tarball. This is in the version released with python2.5

docutils.version

'0.5'

docutils.version_details

'snapshot 2007-09-07, r5427'

​http://docutils.sourceforge.net/RELEASE-NOTES.html#release-0-4-2006-01-09 claims this:

Docutils 0.4.x is the last version that will support Python 2.1. Docutils 0.5 will not be compatible with Python 2.1; Python 2.2 or later will be required.

[Russell Keith-Magee]

Ah - ok. I'll need to break out a Python2.5 install.

Replying to Dirk Datzert <dummy@habmalnefrage.de>:

There will no separate docutils 0.5 tarball. This is in the version released with python2.5

There is no docutils 0.5 release, at last not as of today. And docutils is not a battery included with Python 2.5 or 2.5.1, sorry:
​http://docs.python.org/modindex.html

I don't think this is worth anyone spending time on.

[Keith Bussell]

I tested and verified this bug with python2.5.1, and the latest ​source snapshot of ​docutils. Note that this is the recommended distribution, and it installs itself as v0.5.

docutils v0.4 does not exhibit this problem.

I created a patch to take both versions into account.

Excellent - thanks for tracking this down Keithb

(In [6850]) Fixed #5362: markup tests no longer fail under SVN versions of docutils. Thanks, keithb.
