Summary: tarfile fails in 2.5.1 (NoneType has no ...)
Initial Comment:
In Python 2.5.1's tarfile.py, we have:
def __init__(self, name=None, mode="r", fileobj=None):
self.name = os.path.abspath(name)
If name is None (e.g. extracting from a stream) we get e.g.:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "tarfile.py", line 1168, in open
_Stream(name, filemode, comptype, fileobj, bufsize))
File "tarfile.py", line 1047, in __init__
self.name = os.path.abspath(name)
File "posixpath.py", line 402, in abspath
if not isabs(path):
File "posixpath.py", line 49, in isabs
return s.startswith('/')
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'startswith'
It works with Python 2.3.6, 2.4.4 and 2.5.0, but not 2.5.1.
(discovered by Zero Install unit-tests)
Thanks,
