[New-bugs-announce] [issue43159] pathlib with_suffix() should accept suffix not start with dot

[JiKwon Kim]

New submission from JiKwon Kim <elbarkwon at gmail.com>:

Currently pathlib with_suffix() function only accepts suffix starts with dot(".").

Consider this code;

some_pathlib_path.with_suffix("jpg")

This should change suffix to ".jpg", not raising ValueError.
