Subject: python: fix error handling
X-Git-Tag: debian/0.12_rc1-1~178
X-Git-Url: https://git.cworth.org/git?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8015cbff263606f009b5750d23b28ee332c25db8;p=obsolete%2Fnotmuch-old

python: fix error handling

Before 3434d1940 the return values of libnotmuch functions were
declared as c_void_p and the code checking for errors compared the
returned value to None, which is the ctypes equivalent of a NULL
pointer.

But said commit wrapped all the data types in python classes and the
semantic changed in a subtle way. If a function returns NULL, the
wrapped python value is falsish, but no longer equal to None.
