New submission from Max Bachmann <kont...@maxbachmann.de>:
In my environment I installed the following two libraries: ``` pip install rapidfuzz pip install python-Levenshtein ``` Those two libraries have the following structures: rapidfuzz |-distance |- __init__.py (from . import Levenshtein) |- Levenshtein.*.so |-__init__.py (from rapidfuzz import distance) Levenshtein |-__init__.py When importing Levenshtein first everything behaves as expected: ``` >>> import Levenshtein >>> Levenshtein. Levenshtein.apply_edit( Levenshtein.jaro_winkler( Levenshtein.ratio( Levenshtein.distance( Levenshtein.matching_blocks( Levenshtein.seqratio( Levenshtein.editops( Levenshtein.median( Levenshtein.setmedian( Levenshtein.hamming( Levenshtein.median_improve( Levenshtein.setratio( Levenshtein.inverse( Levenshtein.opcodes( Levenshtein.subtract_edit( Levenshtein.jaro( Levenshtein.quickmedian( >>> import rapidfuzz >>> Levenshtein. Levenshtein.apply_edit( Levenshtein.jaro_winkler( Levenshtein.ratio( Levenshtein.distance( Levenshtein.matching_blocks( Levenshtein.seqratio( Levenshtein.editops( Levenshtein.median( Levenshtein.setmedian( Levenshtein.hamming( Levenshtein.median_improve( Levenshtein.setratio( Levenshtein.inverse( Levenshtein.opcodes( Levenshtein.subtract_edit( Levenshtein.jaro( Levenshtein.quickmedian( ``` However when importing rapidfuzz first it import `rapidfuzz.distance.Levenshtein` when running `import Levenshtein` ``` >>> import rapidfuzz >>> Levenshtein Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> NameError: name 'Levenshtein' is not defined >>> import Levenshtein >>> Levenshtein. Levenshtein.array( Levenshtein.normalized_distance( Levenshtein.similarity( Levenshtein.distance( Levenshtein.normalized_similarity( Levenshtein.editops( Levenshtein.opcodes( ``` My expectation was that in both cases `import Levenshtein` should import the `Levenshtein` module. I could reproduce this behavior on all Python versions I had available (Python3.8 - Python3.10) on Ubuntu and Fedora. ---------- components: Interpreter Core messages: 414599 nosy: maxbachmann priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: import of submodule polutes global namespace type: behavior versions: Python 3.10, Python 3.8, Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue46935> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
