Hi, I've noticed the patch to be able to import Pyro4 again when using Python 2.7 without having the selectors34 backport installed. The patch however is not correct: it only sort of kinda fixes the import statement, but not the code using it. Importing 'select' as 'selectors' also makes no sense as these modules contain different things. Finally, the actual code in multiplexserver.py depends on various things that only the selectors module itself provides: selectors.DefaultSelector and some constants such as selectors.EVENT_READ
With the patch as it is you will only be able to use Pyro4 in client code but as soon as you create a server of type 'multiplexed' you'll run into trouble. This can be easily seen by trying to start the built-in echo server (which runs as a multiplexed server rather than a threaded one): $ python -m Pyro4.test.echoserver It will crash with AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'DefaultSelector' I'm not sure what the best course of action is here, but I strongly suggest to re-open the bug for now and not have the patch as it is right now.
