Description Torbjorn Norbye 2010-03-02 08:37:34 UTC 
There was a bug with .egg file URL handling, and .egg is used to bundle the documentation for all the builtin APIs. This meant that you didn't get popup documentation with code completion for builtins.

To reproduce, try typing in
   sys.exi
and invoke code completion. You should get popups for the two methods shown (exitfunc and exit) but with this bug you don't.

This was fixed yesterday with changeset 9ef473ec3403. I'm filing a bug to use to track this for porting it to the 6.8 update center.

Could QE verify this issue in the trunk in order that it can be ported into the release68_fixes branch?
