For some reason I find my windows 32 bit python 2.7.13 has a package called builtins installed in site-packages. This creates
confusion about how to look at builtins.
The __init__.py looks like this
from __future__ import absolute_import
import sys
__future_module__ = True
if sys.version_info[0] < 3:
from __builtin__ import *
# Overwrite any old definitions with the equivalent future.builtins ones:
from future.builtins import *
else:
raise ImportError('This package should not be accessible on Python 3. '
'Either you are trying to run from the python-future src
folder '
'or your installation of python-future is corrupted.')
this creates complete confusion about how to import __builtin__ versus builtins. I think this is associated in some way with
pyinstaller, but am not sure.
Is this a reasonable way to import either builtins / __builtin__
try:
import __builtin__
except ImportError:
import builtins as __builtin__
