| Many os.path functions return different paths before and after applying os.path.normpath/os.path.realpath/os.path.abspath, etc. Functions such as os.path.basename and os.path.dirname will not handle a trailing slash "correctly". >>> dirs = '/usr/local/' >>> os.path.dirname(dirs) '/usr/local' >>> os.path.basename(dirs) '' >>> >>> dirs = os.path.normpath(dirs) >>> os.path.dirname(dirs) '/usr' >>> os.path.basename(dirs) 'local' >>> This should be wrong since normpath/realpath/abspath shouldn't have such an effect on other os.path functions. | ||
