New submission from Serhiy Storchaka: Gzip files can contains an extra field and some applications use this for extending gzip format. The current GzipFile implementation ignores this field on input and doesn't allow to create a new file with an extra field.
I propose to save an extra field data on reading as a GzipFile attribute and add new parameter for GzipFile constructor for creating new file with an extra field. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 186423 nosy: serhiy.storchaka priority: normal severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: Work with an extra field of gzip files type: enhancement versions: Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17681> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
