New submission from Patrik Dufresne: To mirror the behavior in tarfile, zipfile should make a call to stat instead of lstat if available.

As such, the creation of the archive fail. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 259436 nosy: Patrik Dufresne priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: zipfile should call lstat instead of stat if available versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.2, Python 3.3, Python 3.4, Python 3.5, Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26269> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
