New submission from Bradley Froehle brad.froe...@gmail.com:
When $HOME=/, os.path.expanduser('~/a') returns '//a' rather than '/a'.
This regression was created by a partially incorrect resolution to issue #5471,
and affects versions 2.7 and 3.2 (at least).
$ HOME=/ python2.7 -c import os;
Jesús Cea Avión j...@jcea.es added the comment:
I though that this situation would be happen for ANY env with $HOME ending in
/, but it is not the case:
jcea@ubuntu:~$ echo $HOME
/home/jcea
jcea@ubuntu:~$ python
Python 2.7.3 (default, Apr 12 2012, 13:11:53)
[GCC 4.4.3] on linux2
Type help,
