Brett Cannon <br...@python.org> added the comment: Basically pkgutil kind of handles importers properly, kind of doesn't. So if a module defined a __loader__ it will use it, but all the rest of its code assumes it uses only the loaders defined in pkgutil.
The problem here is that pkgutil.walk_packages() ends up calling iter_importer_modules() which only returns anything of consequence if the loader has iter_modules() defined which is a non-standard API requirement that only pkgutil loaders has implemented. Basically the docs for pkgutil were incorrect in not specifying that the walk only works for loaders that define iter_modules(). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14982> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
