New submission from Alan McIntyre: The current behavior of zipfile._EndRecData is to look in the last 4k of data in a file if it appears it might have an archive comment; this results in flagging proper ZIP files with comments longer than ~4074 bytes as "not a ZIP file."
I plan on posting a patch for this later, but figured this should be documented in case I don't get around to it. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 59411 nosy: alanmcintyre severity: normal status: open title: ZIP files with archive comments longer than 4k not recognized as valid by zipfile module type: behavior versions: Python 2.6 __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1746> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
