We actually have a proposal on import-sig to allow module specific import path manipulation (including the ability to say "don't import this module from this directory, even though it looks like it is here"). I'd favour that mechanism over a new "not importable" file extension.
If that doesn't make it into 3.4, the proposed zipapp extensions would also serve a similar purpose, with some straightforward sys.path manipulation in __main__.py (as PJE pointed out). Regards, Nick. P.S. Has anyone heard from Daniel lately, or know if he's away? I pinged him about getting the zipapp utility module PEP moving again a couple of weeks ago and haven't heard anything back. _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
