[New-bugs-announce] [issue28831] Python 3's shutil.make_archive is truncating filenames

[Dan “locallycompact” Firth]

New submission from Dan “locallycompact” Firth:

I have made an example of this bug here: https://github.com/locallycompact/py3_make_archive_bug

Using shutil.make_archive() in python2 works fine, where as in python3 one of the filenames has been truncated by five characters after unpacking the resulting archive. This is the same every time.
