Public bug reported: Hi,
take this simple example: ``` #!/usr/bin/env python3 import argparse def do_default(options): print("default") def do_build(options): print("build") if __name__ == '__main__': parser = argparse.ArgumentParser() subparsers = parser.add_subparsers() parser.set_defaults(func=do_default) build = subparsers.add_parser('build') build.set_defaults(func=do_build) options = parser.parse_args() options.func(options) ``` On Ubuntu 14.04, without parameters it errors for missing command and with the parameter "build" it prints "default", so the subcommand gets ignored somehow. If running this on ubuntu 15.04, it works as expected: Without parameters, it prints "default". With the parameter "build" it prints "build". I couldn't track that to any upstream bug report, but it seems like a issue was fixed and the fix needs to get backported to ubuntu 14.04. ** Affects: python3-defaults (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1482303 Title: python 3.4.0's argparse ignores subcommand To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python3-defaults/+bug/1482303/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
