Yes, no.
Adapting aj's example to your particular case:
>>> file = "doc/en///index.cache.bz2"
>>> file.split('//')
['doc/en', '/index.cache.bz2']
>>> file.rsplit('//')
['doc/en/', 'index.cache.bz2']
You look like expecting a split + reverse (or whatever this function
might be called in python) when using rsplit, which actually looks like
scanning backward rather than forward.
