Actually, _io, encodings and friends must be loaded before importlib gets imported from Python code, so you will still have __loader__ entries referencing the frozen importlib, unless you also rewrite these attributes. My desire here is not to hide _frozen_importlib, rather to avoid subtle issues with two instances of a module living in memory with separate global states. Whether it's the frozen version or the on-disk Python version that gets the preference is another question (a less important one in my mind). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14657> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
