New submission from Val Shkolnikov <v...@nvsoft.net>:
The list() method of TarFile tarfile object shows question mark in place of file type in verbose mode. For instance python3 -m tarfile -v -l my.tar ?rwxr-xr-x vals/users 0 2021-01-16 18:28:30 bin/ ?rwxr-x--- vals/users 266 2021-01-16 18:28:30 bin/backmine.sh ?rwxr-xr-x vals/users 950 2018-01-02 10:39:18 bin/tm.sh ?rwxrwxrwx vals/users 0 2021-01-16 11:49:36 bin/source-highlight -> ../source-highlight/bin/source-highlight ?rwxr-xr-x vals/users 435 2011-03-27 15:38:06 bin/dd.sh This is because the call stat.filemode(tarinfo.mode) does not pass tarinfo.type to stat.filemode. The type needs to be properly encoded and added to the argument. My patch is attached. Verified under Linux, Cygwin and Windows. ---------- files: patch messages: 386129 nosy: val.shkolnikov priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: tarfile list() method does not show file type type: behavior versions: Python 3.7, Python 3.8 Added file: https://bugs.python.org/file49786/patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43098> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
