dynamic import with heritage

[Grégoire Dooms]

In your dhuile package, you need bidon in your namespace.
This can be done by importing the module containing bidon's definition.
According to what you say ("here my main"), this module is __main__ .

So a simple
from __main__ import bidon
class vidange(bidon):
    pass
should do the job.

If you want your dhuile package to be more portable, it would be better 
to define bidon in a separate module (e.g. a "contenants.py" module ) 
and get both your main and dhuile import it.

Hope it helps.
