Message 250120 - Python tracker (original) (raw)

I hope that I preserved the intention of the test. It tested relative make_archive() with base_name. Original test first changed working directory and drive (to the same drive as the drive of output file) and then called private function _make_tarball(). After my refactoring the code became call make_archive() that resolve base_name before changing current directory. The peculiarity of the buildbot is that it crates temporary files on different drive that current drive, and relative base_name were resolved to wrong absolute name.

Now the code changes current directory before calling make_archive() with relative base_name argument and the test makes sense on non-Windows. Also added similar test for zip format.
