Hi Nico, Thank you for the insights. I am actually importing a number of modules within the controllers fyi, not only via shell.
Would patching shell.py fix the behaviour application wide? Do you suggest I pip install into site-packages again instead of copying from my source version? I suspect that it's not going to fix it. Folder structure: web2py |_site-packages <- here's where my modules are I am trying to package and bundle the whole web2py for work as an app solution and for test release soon. Your experimental binaries would definitely help me to do early test with users while waiting for the official binaries. I could do some quick patches on web2py if required too, please advise how.
