Miro Hrončok <m...@hroncok.cz> added the comment: While raising ImportError certainly makes much more sense in this case, this change is backwards incompatible and there was no DeprecationWarning. I don't consider that fair.
As a certain compromise, we could maybe raise a custom ImportError+ValueError offspring (e.g. BeyondToplevelImportError)? If feeling fancy, we could rise a DeprecationWarning when issublcass(BeyondToplevelImportError, ValueError) is used? ---------- nosy: +hroncok _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37444> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
