New submission from Amaury Forgeot d'Arc <amaur...@gmail.com>:
Up to Python3.2, a nested ImportError was correctly displayed:
./python -c "import distutils.msvc9compiler"
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
File "/home/amauryfa/python/cpython3.2/Lib/distutils/msvc9compiler.py", line
27, in <module>
import winreg
ImportError: No module named winreg
But with 3.3, the traceback is lost:
~/python/cpython3.x$ ./python -c "from distutils import msvc9compiler"
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: cannot import name msvc9compiler
Even though the failure is still on the "import winreg" line. Only ImportError
seems affected, other exceptions are correctly displayed.
