I know this is 6 years too late, but I had this problem a few minutes ago on Python2.7. Googling didn't find me anything relevant except this bug entry. However, I found the cause myself: I had a test file named argparse.py (and an argparse.pyc) in the current directory (i.e. $PYTHONPATH) which was overriding the one in the main python library path. Once I renamed my argparse.py and argparse.pyc to something else, python found the real argparse and that message (the same one you saw) disappeared. ---------- nosy: +David Friedman _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue20840> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
