Haha. Well I guess I don't know what the downside of doing that is. Since we are not actually "using" the date/times extracted, we just want them to have the same value when put back into the zip file as they have when extracted.
Bearing in mind my complete ignorance on such dates and times, I tried adding these two lines to zipfile.py at line 1126:
Code:
mtime = time.mktime(member.date_time + (0,0,0))
os.utime(targetpath, (mtime, mtime))
This gets me "close", but every time I zip the file back up the hour increments by one. Or is that just an example of the timezone issue?
