The trailing "/parent" shouldn't be there on either of these paths. The comments that refer back to these also need the same adjustment.

Same typo as above.

Again, need to lose the last directory from these paths and the comments that refer to them.

This modification is incorrect, it should be: sys.path.append('Lib/test/namespace_pkgs/parent3') and both parent.__path__ and parent.child.__path__ should pick up their extra portions on the next import attempt. Also, I suggest renaming "parent1", "parent2" and "parent3" to "project1", "project2" and "project3". Cheers, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan   |   ncoghlan@gmail.com   |   Brisbane, Australia
