New submission from Eli Bendersky <eliben at 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
