New submission from Raffaele Mancuso:

Python 3.4.3 (default, Jun 29 2015, 12:16:01) 
[GCC 5.1.1 20150618 (Red Hat 5.1.1-4)] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import os
>>> dir = "\"ciao/come/stai/ciao.pdf\""
>>> dir
'"ciao/come/stai/ciao.pdf"'
>>> os.path.dirname(dir)
'"ciao/come/stai'

As you can see, dirname has removed the right quote, but not the left one.
The correct behaviour should be
'ciao/come/stai' (no quotes)
OR
'"ciao/come/stai"' (both quotes)
but never
'"ciao/come/stai' (only one quote)

This breaks other bash tools
