Chris Mellon added the comment: I agree that the zipfile is out of spec. Here are my arguments in favor of making the change anyway:
Existing zip tools like 7zip, pkzip, and winzip handle these files "as expected" As far as I know, it won't break any valid zipfiles. Because the fix necessary is buried inside a private function in the zipfile module, it's difficult to monkey-patch the behavior into place and it's quite hard to figure out what needs to be done. _____________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1757072> _____________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
