Category: Python Library Group: Python 2.5 >Status: Closed >Resolution: Invalid Priority: 5 Submitted By: Richard Philips (rphilips) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Misbehaviour in zipfile Initial Comment: Python 2.5 In library module zipfile, a ZipFile object has method write( filename[, arcname[, compress_type]]) If arcname is not specified, it defaults to the pathname of filename without a drive letter and with leading path separators removed. That is OK. But if arcname is explicitely specified, the drive letter and leading path separators are also removed. I think that is not OK. thanks, Richard Philips ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Georg Brandl (gbrandl) Date: 2006-09-30 07:40 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=849994 It is, since the Zip specification doesn't allow paths with drive letters or absolute paths for files inside the zip. See bug #1413790. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1565087&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
