Hi,
I don't understand why you think tarfile should not fail in case you're trying 
to add a non-existing file. the problem is that glob() already extracted a list 
of files&dirs and then while the script is tar-ring them, you're removing some 
of them -> script crash.

if you want to do it, then wrap tar.add() in a try..catch construct, but I 
think the behavior of tar.add() is correct here.

Lars, you assigned this issue to yourself: what do you think it's the best 
action now (i was about to close it :) ?
