That's a basic rule in PyInstaller; libraries can have nasty side effects on import. Of course, it might be noted that PyXML doesn't have any of those so its import is safe... The current version is nonsense, agreed, and it's broken, agreed too. But I'd rather have a fix which doesn't involve importing in the current Python interpreter. -- Giovanni Bajo --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "PyInstaller" group.
