Category: Python Library Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: A. Murat EREN (meren) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: tarfile can't extract some tar archives.. Initial Comment: Here is a small demo to reproduce the same problem: -----------------8<-----------------8<-----------------8<-----------------8<--- [EMAIL PROTECTED] /home/meren $ wget ftp://ftp.sleepycat.com/releases/db.1.85.tar.gz (...) 100%[============>] 270,953 17.13K/s ETA 00:00 20:21:09 (15.25 KB/s) - `db.1.85.tar.gz' saved [270,953] [EMAIL PROTECTED] /home/meren $ file db.1.85.tar.gz db.1.85.tar.gz: gzip compressed data, from Unix [EMAIL PROTECTED] /home/meren $ python >>> tar = tarfile.open("db.1.85.tar.gz", "r:gz") >>> for tarinfo in tar: ... print tarinfo.name ... db.1.85 db.1.85/btree db.1.85/btree/Makefile.inc db.1.85/btree/bt_close.c db.1.85/btree/bt_conv.c db.1.85/btree/bt_debug.c db.1.85/btree/bt_delete.c db.1.85/btree/btree.h db.1.85/btree/bt_get.c db.1.85/btree/bt_open.c (...) >>> for tarinfo in tar: ... tar.extract(tarinfo) ... >>> Ctrl + D [EMAIL PROTECTED] /home/meren $ ls db* db.1.85 db.1.85.tar.gz [EMAIL PROTECTED] /home/meren $ file db.1.85 db.1.85: empty [EMAIL PROTECTED] /home/meren $ cat db.1.85 [EMAIL PROTECTED] /home/meren $ ----------------->8----------------->8----------------->8----------------->8--- Also this file is extracting with the same result too: ftp://ftp.linux.org.tr/pub/mirrors/gentoo/distfiles/ncompress-4.2.4.tar.gz This thing is very rarely happening, but it is happening. Also, I could extract these archives properly via the native 'tar' binary.. Thanks in advance, Ciao. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: A.
