It seems that people usually use the socket module like this, I think it's safe to respect this habit: if hasattr(socket, "FLAG_NAME"): do_something If use PR19402, your program will have problem on the older version system, not only "don't break existing code". So I think delete-at-runtime is a suitable way. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40060> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
