[ldns-users] ldns-python bug in resolver.get_addr_by_name()

[Paul Wouters]

The following works:

>>> import ldns
>>> resolver = ldns.ldns_resolver.new_frm_file("/etc/resolv.conf")
>>> dnn = ldns.ldns_dname("www.google.com")
>>> addr = resolver.get_addr_by_name(dnn)
>>> for rr in addr.rrs():
...     print rr
... 
www.l.google.com.	300	IN	A	74.125.224.50

[..]

However, this does not work:

>>> addr = resolver.get_addr_by_name("www.google.com")
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ldns.py", line 3898, in get_addr_by_name
     return _ldns.ldns_get_rr_list_addr_by_name(self, name, aclass, flags)
TypeError: in method 'ldns_get_rr_list_addr_by_name', argument 2 of type 'ldns_rdf *'
>>>

The docs claim that get_addr_by_name() can do the string->dname conversion....
