Issue 12532: PyPI server index names with '/' in them (original) (raw)

Forward slashes show up in a project's (packaging.pypi.dist.ReleaseList) name when using a crawler (packaging.pypi.simple.Crawler) against, say and Apache index page. The packaging.tests:/pypiserver/foo_bar_baz directory is a perfect example of this type of data, but it isn't used anywhere in the current tests.

If a crawl is run on the index, results will come back with '/' in there name.

The issue was found when I was attempting to use a Crawler against the packaging.tests.pypi_server.PyPIServer in my package's tests.
