Ah, that answers my earlier question, thanks. (: With an initial glance, do you have any specific ideas as to how test_pkg_import.py should be changed to utilize importlib directly? I've been reading through the docs looking for ideas, but I'll admit that I'm not particularly experienced with using importlib. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37890> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
