?? zipimport.Zipimporter() has one arg, not two.

Why are you explicitly using the zipimport module? In other words, why
don't you put the full path of the zip file in sys.path and then just
use the normal "import module_in_the_zip" mechanism? Note that this
can/should be done once at the top of your calling module. In other
words, the import code is executed when the calling module is imported
by your main script, not every time you call a method in your calling
module.

Alternatively, if you feel you *must* use zipimport, what's to stop
you doing that once at the top of the calling module?

Note: it may help when you reply to show a stripped-down version of
your calling module, sufficient to back up your description of what is
happening.
