R. David Murray added the comment: It is a backward compatibility bug. Something that used to work doesn't any more. And it was explicitly *made* to work previously (the original __init__ statement was 'import collections.abc'). And it is is an implementation bug in the original patch because otherwise there would be no point in importing _collections_abc in __init__.
But you are right, it is relatively unlikely that anyone is relying on it. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20784> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
