Issue 34360: urllib.parse doesn't fully comply to RFC 3986
Since bpo-29651, the urllib.parse docs say: > Unmatched square brackets in the netloc attribute will raise a ValueError. However, when there are at least one [ and ], but they don't match, there's somewhat inconsistent behavior: >>> urllib.parse.urlparse('http://[::1]]').hostname '::1' >>> urllib.parse.urlparse('http://[[::1]').hostname '[::1'
