Would that warrant a new flag for the test suite or even an automated check? That's what I was getting at with this: > 1. python starts up normally. > 2. we clear out all the entire import state except for builtins. > 3. we stick importlib._bootstrap in place. > 4. we set builtins.__import__ to importlib.__import__. > 5. we re-populate sys.modules by reloading all the modules that > were in there before (?). > 6. we run the test suite against this new import state. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14657> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
