[issue40031] IDLE fails trying to inport old idlelib file names for config

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy <tjreedy at udel.edu> added the comment:

Saaheer, using the 'File: Browse...' button under the comment box, please upload (if you still have it) the .../.idlerc/config-extensions.cfg that results in this failure.  Most idlelib files were renamed in 3.6.  'AutoExpand' and 'CallTips' are 2 of the old names.  Built-in extensions were converted after that, and I intended that the new code be compatible with existing customizations.  Current IDLE should not fail this way and your file should help with the fix.

You should only need to rename this file to config-extensions.cfg.old or something and leave the other files in .idlerc alone.
