Chris Caron <lead2g...@gmail.com> added the comment: Thank you for replying so quickly; the issue stems from a bug created here which explains it a bit better: https://github.com/caronc/nzb-notify/issues/27 (scroll to the bottom).
In my case, I had a lib\site-packages\backports in C:\Python27 that keeps over-riding the one defined in the \MyLibraries path. But even when the 'sys.path' has been successfully overridden, the backports module (one i provide for the package of interest) keeps reverting to the C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\ path. It actually just throws an exception that the module doesn't exist (when ordering of paths would say it does). To answer your other question: I got the installer from here: https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-2713/ (the MSI 64 bit installer - second from the bottom) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue31741> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
