[New-bugs-announce] [issue15425] Another strange Tracebacks with importlib

[Amaury Forgeot d'Arc]

New submission from Amaury Forgeot d'Arc <amauryfa at gmail.com>:

Two "easy" ways to get tracebacks which contain useless importlib._bootstrap rows:
- When there is a syntax error in the imported module
- On "import package.module", when top-level package cannot be imported


$ ./python -c "import foo"
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 1421, in _find_and_load
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 1388, in _find_and_load_unlocked
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 527, in _check_name_wrapper
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 899, in load_module
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 880, in load_module
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 503, in module_for_loader_wrapper
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 744, in _load_module
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 857, in get_code
  File "./foo.py", line 1
    invalid syntax
                 ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
