New submission from Nathan <nathaniel.j.b...@gmail.com>: To Whom it may concern – I have suddenly lost my ability to launch IDLE. I am using 2.6 with windows xp. I was using ipython with PyReadline. I have uninstalled and reinstalled just python 2.6.6 with no luck.
I get the following error: Thanks in advance C:\Python26>python.exe Lib\idlelib\idle.py 'import site' failed; use -v for traceback Traceback (most recent call last): File "Lib\idlelib\idle.py", line 6, in <module> import PyShell File "C:\Python26\Lib\idlelib\PyShell.py", line 3, in <module> import os File "C:\Python26\lib\os.py", line 398, in <module> import UserDict File "C:\Python26\lib\UserDict.py", line 82, in <module> import _abcoll File "C:\Python26\lib\_abcoll.py", line 11, in <module> from abc import ABCMeta, abstractmethod ImportError: cannot import name ABCMeta ---------- components: IDLE messages: 136130 nosy: nbuck priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Cannot Launch IDLE versions: Python 2.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12094> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
