New submission from Klaus Ethgen <kl...@ethgen.de>:
I encountered the bug when installing a package with `python3 setup.py install --user`. After that, a second installation failed with this stack trace: ``` Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2191, in _handle_ns loader = importer.find_spec(packageName).loader AttributeError: 'zipimporter' object has no attribute 'find_spec' During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/klaus/devel/upstream/pass-git-helper/setup.py", line 1, in <module> from setuptools import setup File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/setuptools/__init__.py", line 16, in <module> import setuptools.version File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/setuptools/version.py", line 1, in <module> import pkg_resources File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3239, in <module> def _initialize_master_working_set(): File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3222, in _call_aside f(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3264, in _initialize_master_working_set tuple( File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3265, in <genexpr> dist.activate(replace=False) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2780, in activate declare_namespace(pkg) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2279, in declare_namespace _handle_ns(packageName, path_item) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2196, in _handle_ns loader = importer.find_spec(packageName) AttributeError: 'zipimporter' object has no attribute 'find_spec' ``` This error happens now also with different tools. Solution is to `rm -fr ~/.local/lib`. But the next installation triggers the bug again. The only solution is to install via `python3 setup.py install --user --old-and-unmanageable`. When I look into the code of zipimport(er), I do not see any find_spec only the old find_loader. Despite it is a core library, this must be fixed! And with that the name should match the name of the py file to make it able to find the relevant file. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 384279 nosy: mowgli priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: AttributeError: 'zipimporter' object has no attribute 'find_spec' type: crash versions: Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue42818> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
