Brett Cannon <br...@python.org> added the comment: You can't have it both ways. If you explicitly import __init__ then it becomes just another module to Python, but you still need the implicit package module (i.e. without the __init__ name) for everything else to work since so much of the import system relies on the name of the module itself. If one chooses to work around the import system by doing stuff that is non-standard you will get quirky results like this.
Closing as "won't fix" as it isn't worth the code complication to support such an edge case. ---------- resolution: -> wont fix status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14938> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
