Akira Li added the comment: If the_oserror.filename is not None then str(the_oserror) appends the filename twice:
[Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'nonexistent': 'nonexistent' You could remove `err_msg += ':' ...` statements to avoid the repeatition. It may break the code that uses strerror attribute. But exception error messages are explicitly excluded from backward compatibility considirations therefore it might be ok to break it here. I can't find the reference so it should probably be resolved as a new issue (independent from providing the filename attribute value). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22536> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
