Problem with custom path to taxdump.tar.gz

[aziele]

Hi,

I'm trying to specify the custom path for the taxdump.tar.gz file. The file successfully downloads to the path I specify, however I get an error when ete3 tries to open the file (The file does not exist). I think the issue is with the update_db(dbfile, targz_file=None) function.

ncbi = NCBITaxa()
ncbi.update_taxonomy_database('/home/user/Desktop/taxdump.tar.gz')

I'm afraid that I am not able to reproduce the error you had, would you like to provide more information including the ete version you were using?
