Appears to be when the include_folders array is being built.

include_entries = [(os.path.join(base, f), 0) for f in folders]

Hello David,

Thank you for taking the time to report the bug and providing the details. I appreciate your feedback.

I slightly remember that I touched that part of the code some weeks ago. Might have introduced a new bug. I assuming a solution is simple. The variable folders should contain folders only of course but doesn't.

Would you like to provide a fix and open a Pull Request?

Best regards,

[fallingrock]

@buhtz I'll take a stab at it.
