Re: [Python-Dev] Alternative Approach to Relative Imports

I know, but there still is no way to query what kind of hooks are already loaded and what is worse, you cannot unload or reorder them.

I think this is a valid point. I am interested in hooks to read modules from a file archive. If you are a developer, it is necessary to turn this hook OFF, so that you can revert to the usual directory tree where your current source is.

I am solving this by leaving a global variable "Importer" in sitecustomize, and calling sitecustomize.Importer.enable(0). This works, but it might be useful if imputil could de-install a hook as well as install it.
