This is not a bug in libhdate-python. It is not a bug at all ... it is how the library work.
the C library libhdate ( http://packages.debian.org/sid/libhdate1 ) function: char* hdate_get_parasha_string (int parasha, int s); actually returns the static char* 'none' for parasha number 0, this behavior can be changed in future versions of the C library. i do not believe many usres relay on this behavior, but if someone do relay on this, a change in the behavior of the function may be problematic. for example: if i will change the behavior of this function, the script you suggested for printing only days with parasha will not work correctly. 2010/5/25 Ron Varburg <linux...@hotmail.com>: > > Package: libhdate-python > Version: 1.4.12-2 > Severity: normal > > Consider the following: > > $ cat bugDemonstration > #! /usr/bin/python > > import hdate > > h = hdate.Hdate() > h.set_gdate(1, 1, 2010) > julian = h.get_julian() > parasha = h.get_parasha_string(julian) > if parasha: > print parasha > > $ ./bugDemonstration > none > > > _________________________________________________________________ > Hotmail: שירות דואר אלקטרוני רב עוצמה בחינם עם האבטחה של Microsoft. > https://signup.live.com/signup.aspx?id=60969 > _______________________________________________ > Debian-hebrew-package mailing list > debian-hebrew-pack...@lists.alioth.debian.org > http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/debian-hebrew-package -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
