[Python-Dev] Accessing source code in zipped packages (original) (raw)

About a month ago, I submitted two patches that address Pdb and doctest inability to load source code from modules with custom loaders such as modules loaded from zip files:

http://bugs.python.org/issue4201 http://bugs.python.org/issue4197

The patches are very simple, basically calls to linecache.getline() need to be provided with the module's dict to enable linecache to find the module's loader.

Is there a chance that these patches could make it to 2.6.1?
