The tarfile module uses the posix way to handle long file names per default. This is not supported by lots of extractors (like winzip). This should be changed not to be the default. Long file names should be handled by the gnu extension anytime. right now this is reached by setting $tarobject.posix = False manually. In addition the tarfile module sets a file size on directory entries. This isnt supported as well on well known extractors like winzip. The size for directory entries should be zero anytime. I attached a patch to fix the latter problem. |
