Brett Cannon <br...@python.org> added the comment:
There is no mechanism as the entire concept of a namespace package is implemented in importlib.machinery.PathFinder itself and not the generic import system (see https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/652bfdee9495dca241d48278742fe035b7a82bdb/Lib/importlib/_bootstrap_external.py#L1339-L1369). So at the sys.meta_path level, the entire concept of namespace packages isn't even a thing; namespace packages only exist because FileFinder itself makes namespace package possible. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43697> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
