multidict 6.5.0 breaks httpie cli

[mburr]

multidict 6.5.0 causes httpie cli to behave erratically. Downgrading to multidict 6.4.4 works around the problem.

Please see httpie/cli#1637 for details.

However I don't know if the problem is because of a bug in httpie or multidict.

[asvetlov]

Very interesting, thanks.

I'm investigating.

[asvetlov]

I have a reproducer in #1196.

It is definitely multidict bug.

@mburr thank you very much for the report.

[asvetlov]

multidict 6.5.1 will fix the bug. The GitHub bot is preparing the release right now.

[mburr]

Wow that was fast!

[asvetlov]

Thank you for the reproducer; it helped me a lot in figuring out the problem's root.

multidict 6.5.1 is on PyPI now

[Romain-Geissler-1A]

Hi,

When trying to upgrade to multidict 6.6.2 in Fedora rawhide, I also get an issue when re-building httpie to test the ugprade. It fails in the test suite of httpie with a call to "abort" (assert failure ?): https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/romaingeissler1a/python-multidict/fedora-rawhide-aarch64/09225681-httpie/builder-live.log.gz I have unfortunately no more local details about the abort error. Note: fedora used so far multidict 6.4.4.
