If that package was being imported, I'd definitely expect that kind of
behavior, but merely it's presence on your system should not be enough to
actually cause your python scripts to use the "future" behavior within
python 2.7. Has the mailer.py been changed, or is it being imported by
some other script as a module that does import the future module?
It happens at the top of fs.py with this sequence:
try:
# Python >=3.0
import builtins
except ImportError:
# Python <3.0
import __builtin__ as builtins
The code should be taking the except clause but the presence of the
compatibility package fools fs.py into thinking it's on a 3.0 system. This
might work except for the improper Unicode assumption about the kind of
object returned by open().
