Summary: Inability to "see" some module content

Initial Comment: I am not sure if this is new to 2.2a4 or not - the problem became evident via trying to use compiler.py, and this didn't work in 2.2a3 and earlier for different reasons.

In Python 2.2a4, running on Debian Potato, if one imports the "dis" module, and attempts to access (for example) "dis.cmp_op", the result is an AttributeError. Some of the module content can be accessed, some cannot. It does not appear to be related to the all list within the module.

I append a file showing the problem.

Drat - thanks, I hadn't spotted that it was pulling in the "old" version of compiler.

I did notice the two uses of "dir", but only after posting - sorry.

Please close this if you wish and if I find something "real" I'll resubmit a better report.

Note the traceback: you're getting the compiler package from site-packages. That's not the version that comes with 2.2a4! Unfortunately there's a bug in the install target for the Makefile in 2.2a4 that forgets to install the new packages (compiler and email); get Makefile.pre.in rev 1.60 or later from CVS for a fix. Or you can manually copy the compiler package to the right place.

And note that some of the problems with dis are typos: you typed dir instead of dis a few times.

I'll close this unless you have a real bug to report that somehow didn't come out...
