Christoph Groth <christ...@grothesque.org> added the comment: In the above, please replace "understand the decision" by "understand the usefulness of it".
In the above discussion, as an alternative to a new exception, it was proposed to add an attribute to ImportError ('reason'), but then people seemed to agree that this is quite useless outside of importlib (msg192261). But then I don't understand why the original idea of the exception was revived. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue15767> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
