Hello everyone, I noticed that when you open a zipped tarball using 'tarfile' and if you then get the pseudo-file descriptor fd for a file via 'extractfile', then fd.tell() is broken in the following way:
- before reading anything from fd, fd.tell() will return 0 (that's still ok) - after reading a line via fd.readline(), fd.tell() will return a value different from 0 (still ok, I guess) - subsequent calls of fd.readline() and fd.tell() will yield the correct lines but always the same value from fd.tell(). fd.seek() seems to be unaffected from this strange behaviour. Is there a mistake on my side or does this need fixing? Best regards, Niklas Volbers. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
