Description Miroslav Suchý 2011-03-03 15:44:53 UTC
I'm working on:
https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/Features/NonLatinCharacters
and I would need python bindings to libidn.

I see that in upstream tar.gz is bindings for libidn already present. It may be useful if you create from src.rpm new subpackage python-libidn.

Comment 1 Miroslav Lichvar 2011-03-04 12:53:02 UTC
The code in contrib/idn-python doesn't seem to be supported anymore, it would need to be updated to the latest API and some bugs fixed.

There is a comment:
*** Note that as of version 2.3 Python has native IDN support, see
*** <http://www.python.org/doc/2.3.2/lib/module-encodings.idna.html>.
