Ulrich Petri added the comment: Thanks for the fast response. However I disagree with the assertion that this is "working as expected". IMO the same arguments apply as in the original ticket (esp. Georg Brandls) http://bugs.python.org/issue15110#msg163258.
It is unexpected, confusing (esp. to newer devs) and adds a lot of (unnecessary) noise to tracebacks. Also this basically demotes `import_module` to second rate league since it doesn't get to enjoy the niceties of "proper" import which is unfortunate since it's used heavily for example in django. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29787> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
