New submission from Val Shkolnikov :
The list() method of TarFile tarfile object shows question mark in place of
file type in verbose mode. For instance
python3 -m tarfile -v -l my.tar
?rwxr-xr-x vals/users 0 2021-01-16 18:28:30 bin/
?rwxr-x--- vals/users266 2021-01-16 18:28:30 bin/backmine.sh
?rwxr-xr-x vals/users950 2018-01-02 10:39:18 bin/tm.sh
?rwxrwxrwx vals/users 0 2021-01-16 11:49:36 bin/source-highlight ->
../source-highlight/bin/source-highlight
?rwxr-xr-x vals/users435 2011-03-27 15:38:06 bin/dd.sh
This is because the call stat.filemode(tarinfo.mode) does not pass tarinfo.type
to stat.filemode. The type needs to be properly encoded and added to the
argument.
My patch is attached. Verified under Linux, Cygwin and Windows.
