New submission from Nick Coghlan: Issue 19769 shows that if __main__ in a package throws ImportError, runpy will incorrectly report the package as not being directly executable (when it actually claims to be executable, it's just broken)
This can be fixed in 3.3+ by checking for an appropriate value in the name attribute of the caught exception, and only wrapping it if the failed lookup was for the __main__ submodule we're looking for. The associated test can just use a __main__.py that deliberately raises ImportError. ---------- components: Library (Lib) keywords: easy messages: 204334 nosy: ncoghlan priority: normal severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: runpy should check ImportError.name before wrapping it type: behavior versions: Python 3.3, Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19771> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
