New submission from Serhiy Storchaka: Test test_extract_hardlink() in Lib/test/test_tarfile.py ran 4 times. First time (uncompressed tarfile) it extract symbolic and hard links successfully, but in other 3 times (gzipped, bzipped and lzma'ed tarfile) extracting fails becouse this links already exists (left from first test). The test just ignore this error and other possible errors (error EEXIST raised, but ignored all except ENOENT).
Here is a patch, which adds a right cleanup of extracted links. ---------- components: Tests files: test_tarfile_test_extract_hardlink.patch keywords: patch messages: 177166 nosy: ezio.melotti, michael.foord, pitrou, serhiy.storchaka priority: normal severity: normal stage: patch review status: open title: Wrong test_extract_hardlink() in test_tarfile.py type: behavior versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.2, Python 3.3, Python 3.4 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file28260/test_tarfile_test_extract_hardlink.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16645> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
