Martin Panter added the comment: Quentin, do you think this should be reopened?
Brett Cannon, I wonder if the only reason you closed this bug is because you thought the scenario to trigger it is very unlikely. Considering it affected someone else, and that there are other real-world triggers in addition to Py Socks, would it be okay to reopen it? I could try to make a patch or some concrete suggestions when I have a chance, if that helps change your mind :) Perhaps a regression test could be based on this experiment: >>> import sys, warnings >>> sys.meta_path = None >>> sys.modules.pop("linecache", None) <module 'linecache' from '/usr/lib/python3.4/linecache.py'> >>> warnings.warn("boom") Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/usr/lib/python3.4/warnings.py", line 15, in showwarning file.write(formatwarning(message, category, filename, lineno, line)) File "/usr/lib/python3.4/warnings.py", line 21, in formatwarning import linecache File "/home/proj/python/lib/misc.py", line 41, in __call__ return self.__wrapped__(name, globals, locals, fromlist, level) File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 2237, in _find_and_load File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 2222, in _find_and_load_unlocked File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 2150, in _find_spec File "/usr/lib/python3.4/warnings.py", line 15, in showwarning file.write(formatwarning(message, category, filename, lineno, line)) . . .
