Martin v. Löwis added the comment: Why do you think the behavior is broken? It looks right to me - it's not possible to get file information for a file that is scheduled for deletion.
ISTM that rather os.path.exists has non-intuitive behavior; it shouldn't infer from the PermissionError that the file does not exist, but that it is not able to tell. However, this is not a bug, but documented behavior, see http://docs.python.org/library/os.path.html#os.path.exists ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15556> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
