Eric V. Smith <e...@trueblade.com> added the comment: As far as which path components are returned, I think this is working as designed. The documentation for os.path.join says:
""" If a component is an absolute path, all previous components are thrown away and joining continues from the absolute path component. On Windows, the drive letter is not reset when an absolute path component (e.g., r'\foo') is encountered. """ pathlib's documentation for creating PurePath objects says: """ When several absolute paths are given, the last is taken as an anchor (mimicking os.path.join()’s behaviour) """ ---------- nosy: +eric.smith _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue35223> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
