eryksun added the comment: site.addpackage calls site.makepath(sitedir, line):
def makepath(*paths): dir = os.path.join(*paths) try: dir = os.path.abspath(dir) except OSError: pass return dir, os.path.normcase(dir) In 2.7.7, os.path.join gets this wrong. For example: >>> print os.path.join(r'C:\Spam\Eggs', r'\\Eggs\Spam') C:\\Eggs\Spam 3.4 gets it right: >>> print(os.path.join(r'C:\Spam\Eggs', r'\\Eggs\Spam')) \\Eggs\Spam ntpath.join was reimplemented for issue 19456. The rewrite depends on ntpath.splitdrive, but 2.x has the old splitdrive that doesn't handle UNC paths: >>> os.path.splitdrive(r'\\Spam\Eggs') ('', '\\\\Spam\\Eggs') Instead there's ntpath.splitunc (deprecated in 3.1+): >>> os.path.splitunc(r'\\Spam\Eggs') ('\\\\Spam\\Eggs', '') Maybe ntpath.join could also try splitunc, or maybe 3.x splitdrive can be backported. 2.7.7 ntpath.join: http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/f89216059edf/Lib/ntpath.py#l61 ---------- nosy: +eryksun _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21672> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
