Karen Tracey added the comment: Note the zipfile being processed may have been created on a non-Unix system, and the external_attr value can't be usefully interpreted as permission bits when the value at _CD_CREATE_SYSTEM (https://hg.python.org/cpython/file/default/Lib/zipfile.py#l107) in the central directory entry is not Unix (3). Patches so far don't seem to guard against mistakenly assuming a foreign-system external_attr value can be interpreted as Unix permission bits.
(At present github is delivering zipfiles of repos with a create system value of 0 and external_attr values of 0.) ---------- nosy: +kmtracey _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15795> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
