In my opinion, this is suprising behaviour without an actual rationale, and a current implementation feature. I'd be a pitty for me to see it becoming an official part of the language. What bothers me most is that from . import moduleX doesn't work but import package.moduleX does work. So the circular import itself works without problems, however, not with a handy identifier. This is would be an odd asymmetry, I think. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue992389> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
