Just realised that the "race condition" is triggered consistently on Mac OSX machines working on non-Mac filesystems, where they store extended attributes like last access time in meta files with a `._` prefix. These files are listed by `os.scandir` after their original files and are removed, as soon as the original file is unlinked. Ie. a test.txt, ._test.txt pair will always raise FileNotFoundError for ._test.txt since the file system driver itself already removed it when the unlink on test.txt was executed. Refer also to https://stackoverflow.com/a/70355470/2873952. Current status seems to be: 1. https://bugs.python.org/issue29699 and https://bugs.python.org/issue37260 are duplicates. 2. https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/13580 linked from here has been closed due to lack of unit tests (but with the possibility to re-open after providing those) 3. https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/14064 is still open and seems to be mostly the same patch, does have unit tests and awaiting a second review. What is the next step? ---------- nosy: +coroa versions: -Python 3.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue29699> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
