I just noticed that I'm unnecessarily obtuse in my description of a possible fix, the diff (without test update): % git diff Lib/zipimport.py (main)cpython diff --git a/Lib/zipimport.py b/Lib/zipimport.py index c55fec6aa1..43ac6cbe57 100644 --- a/Lib/zipimport.py +++ b/Lib/zipimport.py @@ -334,7 +334,7 @@ def invalidate_caches(self): _zip_directory_cache[self.archive] = self._files except ZipImportError: _zip_directory_cache.pop(self.archive, None) - self._files = None + self._files = {} def __repr__(self): With that change the exception should not happen, and the now stale zipimporter would be ignored when flushing the cache while the zipfile referenced by the zip importer instance has been removed. That said, I haven't tested this and won't create a PR because my local tree is (still) a mess. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue45183> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
