Getting "Cannot create a file when that file already exists" for custom config file

The traceback

Traceback (most recent call last):

FileExistsError: [WinError 183] Cannot create a file when that file already exists: 'C:\\Users\\Wasi Master\\AppData\\Local\\prompt_toolkit\\ptpython\\config.py'

Looking at the Path.mkdir documentation

If exist_ok is true, FileExistsError exceptions will be ignored (same behavior as the POSIX mkdir -p command), but only if the last path component is not an existing non-directory file.

But the clause “but only if the last path component is not an existing non-directory file.” is a bit confusing for me since I’m not a native English speaker. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks in advance 😃

OH! this was just a mistake on my end. I accidentally ended up putting a file path instead of a folder path in my PTPYTHON_CONFIG_HOME environment variable. Sorry for wasting your time, I’m clumsy at times

Okay, I’ll first do some debugging on my end and notify you 😃

So the config file directory is getting picked up by ptpython correctly, so that shouldn’t be a issue
