bug#19696: Acknowledgement (24.4; python.el: blank line eldoc error)

[Carlos Pita]

You're right Stefan, my bad. I've been working quite a lot in
python.el and somehow mixed versions in the way (I use master at home
but 24.4 at work). The default is now #'ignore and the advise is to
advice eldoc-documentation-function. So feel free to close this.
