New submission from Chris Jerdonek <chris.jerdo...@gmail.com>: pkgutil.walk_packages(paths) seems to return incorrect results when the name of a subpackage of a path in paths matches the name of a package in the standard library. It both excludes modules it should include, and includes modules it should exclude. Here is an example:
> mkdir temp > touch temp/__init__.py > touch temp/foo.py > mkdir temp/logging > touch temp/logging/__init__.py > touch temp/logging/bar.py > python Python 3.2.3 (default, Apr 29 2012, 01:19:06) [GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5666) (dot 3)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> from pkgutil import walk_packages >>> for info in walk_packages(['temp']): ... print(info[1], info[0].path) ... foo temp logging temp logging.config /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.2/lib/python3.2/logging logging.handlers /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.2/lib/python3.2/logging >>> Observe that logging.bar is absent from the list, and logging.config and logging.handlers are included. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 160464 nosy: cjerdonek priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: pkgutil.walk_packages returns extra modules type: behavior versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14787> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
