[issue8978] "tarfile.ReadError: file could not be opened successfully" if compiled without zlib

[Kevin Funk]

Kevin Funk <kfunk at kde.org> added the comment:

It's Python 3.6 from CentOS 6. In my particular case I'm lacking the lzma module. But for figuring that out I had to add the explicit modes to the `tarfile.open` calls in my Python script.
