This issue is somewhat old, but I think either applying the patch attached earlier or noting this difference in behavior in the documentation would be ideal, as it can be quite difficult to debug shutil.unpack_archive silently skipping files. If the files you expect to unpack do contain '..' for non-malicious purposes this makes shutil.unpack_archive unsuitable for the situation. ---------- nosy: +huantian _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue20907> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
