Closed 8a20ad3a-3581-43a0-ab8d-b04a0598832e closed 15 years ago
The binhex module still has uses of the deprecated and now now removed Carbon module.
The attached patch 'fix' this by removing the code, something else may be required, but I don't know what.
So this is only a RFC to start discussion
As far as I can tell, it looks safe to just remove these two blocks.
There's a third block that should be removed as well (the second "if
os.name == 'mac': ..." in the hexbin function.
This should be fixed in the 3.1 maintenance branch as well.
See also bpo-2715.
Closing as a duplicate of bpo-2715.
