Guido van Rossum <gu...@python.org> added the comment:
I doubt it's meant as a feature. I don't recall anything about it. I suspect it's got to do with limitations of the Windows installer (at the time). Maybe there are other things that are siblings of "Lib" that must be importable, e.g. DLLs? I recommend taking this up with Steve Dower, who owns the Windows installers these days. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37089> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
