Python 3.4.3 (default, Jun 29 2015, 12:16:01) 
[GCC 5.1.1 20150618 (Red Hat 5.1.1-4)] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import os
>>> dir = "\"ciao/come/stai/ciao.pdf\""
>>> dir
'"ciao/come/stai/ciao.pdf"'
>>> os.path.dirname(dir)
'"ciao/come/stai'
As you can see, dirname has removed the right quote, but not the left one.
The correct behaviour should be
'ciao/come/stai' (no quotes)
OR
'"ciao/come/stai"' (both quotes)
but never
'"ciao/come/stai' (only one quote)
This breaks other bash tools

As far as os.path.dirname is concerned, you have a file named 'ciao.pdf"' in a directory called '"ciao/come/stai', which is what you're seeing. Since those are legal names, there's no way for os.path.dirname to know what you actually want. The solution is to handle the quotes yourself however you want.
