[issue8396] tarfile.open does fails with UnicodeDecodeError if parent dir is unicode

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor <victor.stinner at haypocalc.com> added the comment:

I proposed a workaround, the real bug is that os.path.abspath() doesn't support unicode... And this bug was already fixed 7 weeks ago by r78247 (issue #3426).
http://svn.python.org/view/python/trunk/Lib/posixpath.py?r1=78247&r2=78246&pathrev=78247

Python 2.6.5 and 2.7b1 are fixed. So please upgrade :-)

----------
resolution:  -> fixed
status: open -> closed
