Stefan Krah <[email protected]> added the comment:
It looks like distutils/command from the stdlib is searched first
despite the fact that the first path entry is '/home/stefan/tmp'.
If distutils/command is replaced with a/b, the import works:
$ pwd
/home/stefan/tmp
$
$ ls a/b/
__init__.py xyz.py
$ ls distutils/command/
__init__.py xyz.py
$
$ cat a/b/__init__.py
import sys
sys.path.insert(0, '/home/stefan/tmp')
print(sys.path)
distutils_all = ['xyz']
__import__('a.b',globals(),locals(),distutils_all)
$ cat distutils/command/__init__.py
import sys
sys.path.insert(0, '/home/stefan/tmp')
print(sys.path)
distutils_all = ['xyz']
__import__('distutils.command',globals(),locals(),distutils_all)
$ /home/stefan/usr/bin/python3.3 a/b/__init__.py
['/home/stefan/tmp', '/home/stefan/tmp/a/b',
