| "...whose name has the form package.pth" http://www.python.org/doc/lib/module-site.html as far as I can tell, that is incorrect. the .pth file can be named anything - only the name of the dir listed in it is used as a package/module name. It is implemented in site.py : def addpackage(sitedir, name, known_paths): fullname = os.path.join(sitedir, name) f = open(fullname, "rU") for line in f: dir, dircase = makepath(sitedir, line) if not dircase in known_paths and os.path.exists(dir): sys.path.append(dir) Notice name is not added to sys.path. | ||

| I fail to see the problem. "package" is deliberately type-set in italics to indicate that the name of the pth is a placeholder. Nowhere it says that it must be the string "package", or a specific string. Tentatively closing as won't fix. | ||
