(Sorry: I just noticed the Python 3.6 I'm using is /not/ from distro packages.
The issue remains, though, the Python exception could be more descriptive.)

It's Python 3.6 from CentOS 6. In my particular case I'm lacking the lzma
module. But for figuring that out I had to add the explicit modes to the
`tarfile.open` calls in my Python script.

I just ran into this, under Python 3.6.
IMHO, the error message should be improved, even when the mode was not passed
explicitly.
Can someone reopen this?
