GNU LONGNAME extension.

Neal Norwitz b0e32e2b71 Fix SF bug # 1330039, patch # 1331635 from Lars Gustaebel (tarfile maintainer)
Problem: if two files are assigned the same inode
number by the filesystem, the second one will be added
as a hardlink to the first, which means that the
content will be lost.

The patched code checks if the file's st_nlink is
greater 1. So only for files that actually have several
links pointing to them hardlinks will be created, which
is what GNU tar does.

Will backport.

Brett Cannon 43e559a155 When calling tarname with an argument (and thus not use testtar.tar) return a
path for the file in the temp directory for the platform.

Brett Cannon 455ea53d0e Make creation of temporary file and directory more portable. Also made cleanup
code use proper functions to get paths.

Changed the name of tar file that is searched for to be absolute (i.e., not use
os.extsep) since filename is locked in based on name of file in CVS
(testtar.tar).

Closes bug #731403 .

Martin v. Löwis a94568a753 Patch #734231: Update RiscOS support. In particular, correct
riscospath.extsep, and use os.extsep throughout.

Walter Dörwald 21d3a32b99 Combine the functionality of test_support.run_unittest()
and test_support.run_classtests() into run_unittest()
and use it wherever possible.

Also don't use "from test.test_support import ...", but
"from test import test_support" in a few spots.

From SF patch #662807.

Jack Jansen 149a8993b0 The filename fix of the previous checkin was complete bogus, the problem is elsewhere. Retracting. 2003-03-07 13:27:53 +00:00
Jack Jansen c7fcc2d772 Two fixes to make this test pass on MacOS9:
- the test was sloppy about filenames: "0-REGTYPE-TEXT" was used where
  the archive held "/0-REGTYPE-TEXT".
- tarfile extracts all files in binary mode, but the test expected to be able to
  read and compare text files in text mode. Use universal text mode.

Tim Peters 8266af4f06 Removed debugging print in test_tarfile.
In the Windows installer, continued the endless battle to copy over files
with new one-shot extensions.

Neal Norwitz 996acf122d Actually run these tests from regrtest.py.
There was no test_main() and the main body was protected
by if __name__ == '__main__' so the test didn't happen
on import either.
