New submission from Barney Gale <barney.g...@gmail.com>:
`pathlib.Path.expanduser()` does not call `os.path.expanduser()`, but instead re-implements it. The implementations look pretty similar and I can't see a good reason for the duplication. The only difference is that `pathlib.Path.expanduser()` raises `RuntimeError` when a home directory cannot be resolved, whereas `os.path.expanduser()` returns the path unchanged. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 363635 nosy: barneygale priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: `pathlib.Path.expanduser()` does not call `os.path.expanduser()` versions: Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39899> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
