How about someone saying that I wish the standard library was more easily shadow-able? ;) In 2.x it’s easy to do it by accident because of the implicit relative imports which is of course, crummy. I think it’d be nice if a package could override the standard library in a sane way though. Like how pdb++ does. This is already possible if you install stuff as .eggs and the world hasn’t burned down, it’s just not easily possible if you don’t install as eggs. ----------------- Donald Stufft PGP: 0x6E3CBCE93372DCFA // 7C6B 7C5D 5E2B 6356 A926 F04F 6E3C BCE9 3372 DCFA _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
