[Danijel]

New submission from Danijel :

The function name is really ugly. The attached patch introduces an optional 
parameter to shutil.copy.

[issue40049] tarfile cannot extract from stdin

[Danijel]

New submission from Danijel :

Hi,

I have the following code:

```
import tarfile
import sys

tar = tarfile.open(fileobj=sys.stdin.buffer, mode='r|*')
tar.extractall("tarout")
tar.close()
```

then doing the following on a debian 10 system:

```
$ python -m tarfile -c git.tar /usr/share/doc/git
$ python -V
Python 3.8.1
$ cat git.tar | python foo.py
$ cat git.tar | python foo.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "foo.py", line 5, in 
tar.extractall("tarout")
  File "/home/danielt/miniconda3/lib/python3.8/tarfile.py", line 2026, in 
extractall
self.extract(tarinfo, path, set_attrs=not tarinfo.isdir(),
  File "/home/danielt/miniconda3/lib/python3.8/tarfile.py", line 2067, in 
extract
self._extract_member(tarinfo, os.path.join(path, tarinfo.name),
  File "/home/danielt/miniconda3/lib/python3.8/tarfile.py", line 2139, in 
_extract_member
self.makefile(tarinfo, targetpath)
  File "/home/danielt/miniconda3/lib/python3.8/tarfile.py", line 2178, in 
makefile
source.seek(tarinfo.offset_data)
  File "/home/danielt/miniconda3/lib/python3.8/tarfile.py", line 513, in seek
raise StreamError("seeking backwards is not allowed")
tarfile.StreamError: seeking backwards is not allowed
```

The second extraction trys to seek, although the mode is 'r|*'.


For reference if I remove ".buffer" from the code above, I can run
it with python2 without problems:

```
$ cat foo2.py
import tarfile
import sys

tar = tarfile.open(fileobj=sys.stdin, mode='r|*')
tar.extractall("tarout")
tar.close()

$ cat git.tar | python2 foo2.py
$ cat git.tar | python2 foo2.py
$ cat git.tar | python2 foo2.py
$ cat git.tar | python2 foo2.py
$ cat git.tar | python2 foo2.py
```

[issue40049] tarfile cannot extract from stdin

Danijel  added the comment:

Hi,

well, it says entity too large. I've attached a smaller one, that throws a 
similar but slightly different error. (Note: only on the _second_ extraction, 
it looks like problems with symlinks)

You can find larger ones here:

https://data.rbfh.de/issue40049/

The typescript*.txt are showing a shell session with two different python 
versions. (3.4.2 and 3.8.2)
