zipfile.BadZipFile: File is not a zip file raises an exception
Metadata
Current evaluation
Snapcraft 2.43.1 crash during pull: zipfile.BadZipFile when a source file is not a valid zip. No maintainer interaction for ~7.5 years; the old internal/sources code path no longer exists in current snapcraft.
Suggested action: close stale
Reason: The traceback points to snapcraft/internal/sources/_zip.py in version 2.43.1 (Dec 2018), but the current repo layout has no internal/ directory at all — the lifecycle was rewritten around craft-parts, so the affected code path and version no longer exist. With 0 comments, no labels, and no maintainer activity in ~7.5 years, the issue is both inactive and no longer applicable to the current codebase; the underlying cause (user pointing source: at a non-zip file) would surface differently today.
