New submission from Eli Bendersky <eliben@gmail.com>: The documentation of: distutils.archive_util.make_zipfile(base_name, base_dir[, verbose=0, dry_run=0]) Says: Create a zip file from all files in and under base_dir. The output zip file will be named base_dir + .zip. This isn't correct, as the name of the output file is "base_name + .zip" The error exists both in the docstring of make_zipfile in distutils/archive_util.py and in the ReST documentation of the function ---------- assignee: tarek components: Distutils, Documentation keywords: easy messages: 123872 nosy: docs@python, eli.bendersky, eric.araujo, tarek priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: error in documentation of distutils.archive_util.make_zipfile versions: Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10693> _______________________________________
