Category: Python Interpreter Core Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Gustavo Tabares (gustavotabares) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: sys.path gets munged with certain directory structures Initial Comment: Platform: Windows XP SP2 Python Version: 2.4.2 final First off, I'm not sure if this is the same bug as 947380 . Comments say it was fixed in Python 2.4, but I'm running Python 2.4.2 and it looks like I'm hitting the same issue. If this is the same issue and has been fixed in a later version, I apologize. To reproduce: 1. Create a new directory (e.g., 'foo'). 2. Inside foo, create a __init__.py along with a directory called 'stat' which also has an empty __init__.py inside of it. 3. 'cd' to this directory via the command line and start the Python interpreter. Observe the 'import site' failed error. A quick check at sys.path reveals that sys.path is munged and doesn't contain all that it should. WORKAROUND: Rename 'stat' directory to 'stats' or something else. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1534764&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
