New submission from Marc Abramowitz <msabramo at gmail.com>:
>From a failing unit test with coverage.py, I noticed what seems to be a slight typo in the error message when a module cannot be imported:

+ raise ImportError('No module named {!r}'.format(name), name=name)
encoding = None
if mode == 'U':
Note the missing "d". This makes it match similar existing error messages:
Lib/importlib/_bootstrap.py
1238:_ERR_MSG = 'No module named {!r}'
Lib/modulefinder.py
185: self.msgout(4, "raise ImportError: No module named", qname)
186: raise ImportError("No module named " + qname)
198: self.msgout(4, "raise ImportError: No module named", mname)
199: raise ImportError("No module named " + mname)
215: raise ImportError("No module named " + subname)
Lib/runpy.py
106: raise ImportError("No module named %s" % mod_name)
I wonder if this can be centralized to ensure that all code uses the exact same message?
