[issue6090] zipfile DeprecationWarning Python in 2.6, failure in 2.7

[Martin v. Löwis]

Martin v. Löwis <martin at v.loewis.de> added the comment:

This is not a bug in the code, but in the application. You are passing a date before 1980; this is not supported in zipfiles. Try passing 1980 instead of 1.

I think the error message could be better, though; it should probably be a ValueError.

Reducing the priority to normal.

----------
nosy: +loewis
priority: critical -> normal
