[IronPython] Does IronPython 2.0 not recognize packages?

I am pretty new to Python. I put the following in __init__.py
import Authentication
__all__ = ["Authentication"]

I still get the error:

Thanks,

Packages work fine with IronPython 2.

This will cause Python to expect the name 'Authentication' to exist in
the '__init__.py' file itself - which it won't unless that module
imports it.

This is *very* different to having __all__ = ["Authentication"] in the
module. Try it without the sys.path manipulation and I think you will
find it still works.

All the best,
