Package: python2.4
Version: 2.4.4-3
Severity: normal

Hello,

I came across a problem with Python2.4's tarfile module:

In [3]: m = tarfile.open('../moin-1.5.8.tar.gz')

In [4]: ml= m.getmembers()

In [5]: type(ml)
Out[5]: <type 'list'>

In [6]: len(ml)
Out[6]: 951

$ tar tzvf ../moin-1.5.8.tar.gz |wc -l
2385

Replacing the tarfile.py with the version found in Python2.5 fixes the
problem.


Best,
--Toni++
