Well, I have Python 3.5.1 installed and the problem still persists. I'm not sure that 25626 ist the same problem - in the comments they say this was not an issue in Python 3.4 or 2.x, but this is clearly the case here. Another thing I've noticed: Contrary to my previous statement, zlib.decompress() doesn't work on archives that are larger than 4GB (I was mislead by the fact that my 1GB archive contained a 6GB file). When I use gzip.compress() on more than 2^32 bytes, the same OverflowError occurs as with zlib.compress(). But when I use gzip.decompress(), I can extract archives that are larger than 4GB. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27130> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
