New submission from Martin v. Löwis <mar...@v.loewis.de>: When extracting, the time stamps of directories are modified twice: once when creating the directories, and then once in reverse order when done. The first utimes call is redundant; it also causes issues with a buggy NFS server, see
http://www.python.org/dev/buildbot/3.1/builders/AMD64%20debian%20parallel%203.1/builds/147/steps/test/logs/stdio (specifically, touching a file twice with the same second-resolution time stamp will increase the microsecond counter). The attached patch works around the issue; regardless of the NFS bug, I think that the redundant call should be eliminated. ---------- assignee: ghaering files: tarfile.diff keywords: patch messages: 119467 nosy: ghaering, loewis priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: tarfile touches directories twice Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file19345/tarfile.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10184> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
