I'm running CL-Python w/ Allegro Express 8.0 on Linux. I find that import fails for anything except stuff in the current working directory. That appears to be because *habitat* has search paths = nil. I tried (setf (habitat-search-paths *habitat*) <stuff>) and that works OK for importing .py files but attempting to import built-in stuff like sys fails.

Setting the search path in sys.path should work:

...

import sys

#<package @ #x107484f2>

...

...

sys.path.append("~")

None

import bar

; Fast loading /Users/willem/bar.fasl bar #<module `bar' from file #P"/Users/willem/bar.py" @ #x10eede5a>

...

...

import math

#<package @ #x10d46d82>

Is there some better way to establish the seach path? Shouldn't the built-in stuff be findable via the default seach paths?

Yeah, there was a typo in py-import, which used (excl:package-children :clpython.modules) while the correct package name was :clpython.module. Sorry for that, please update CVS and try again.

Importing modules should now mostly work, but there is still an issue with importing mutually dependent modules.
