New submission from Samuele Santi: I noticed this weird behavior in Python 3.6:
Apparently ``import package.module as _alias`` fails in a threaded environment, sometimes raising an ``ImportError``, seemingly at random. Everything seems to be working perfectly fine: - On 3.5 and lower - When *not* defining an alias, eg. ``import package.module`` - When using the ``from package import module as alias`` style See this repo with code for reproducing the issue: https://github.com/rshk/python36-import-alias-concurrency-bug I tested this on the system Python 3.6.1 shipped with Archlinux (both inside and outside of a virtualenv), and in the official docker image for 3.6. This all started here https://github.com/psycopg/psycopg2/issues/550 as others were experiencing this issue too. ---------- messages: 297380 nosy: Samuele Santi2 priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Import dotted name as alias breaks with concurrency versions: Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue30814> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
