New submission from Kent Tenney [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
from foo import bar
ImportError: cannot import name bar
The error may be due to the wrong 'foo' being found, some investigation
is required.
If the the ImportError message included the filename for 'foo', the
problem would be obvious.
ImportError cannot import name bar from /usr/lib/snip/foo.pyc
