I don't recall pyc having that option, but the .NET loader ignores everything except the name (the AssemblyName, not the file name, for added confusion) if the assemblies are not strong-named. > > If I start fresh and load this modules using clr.AddReference() and import > it works fine. > > If I change configurations, the previous implementations appear to be > cached in the system.

To verify if that's the case, setup fuslogvw and see what messages it gives when the assemblies are loaded. > I have tried: > > Adding reload() after all the import statements. > This only affects Python modules.

Strong-naming should also help, since the loader will now consider the version. You should be able to just call sn.exe on the assembly produced by pyc to add this. Finally, if nothing else, you could change the names to to include the version. Hacky, but effective. - Jeff
