I'm suggesting to add the dict's 'get' method to dbm interface. So that, it would be easier to manage 'key not found' issues.

dbm.ndbm already has get(). dbm.gnu is missing it.
Kain94 commentedon Aug 1, 2010
Yes I know, that's why get() should be a standard dbm's method like __getitem__() and __setitem__(). So, defining it in all classes which implements dbm interface would be a good enhancement.

+1 on generalize the dbm.gnu and gbm.ndbm, and also dbm.dumb. All of them should follow the Collections.MutableMapping ABC. I will work out a patch to fix this.

See bpo-9523.

The other bug report adds the get method as part of MutableMapping compliance, so I’m closing this as a obsoleted.
