[IPython-dev] bug report: dreload not working with 'from module import'

[Ralf Schmitt]

Hi,
sorry for posting to the developers mailing list, but using the 
bugtracker wasn't possible (there seems to be no dns entry for 
www.scipy.net).

I have the following package:

ipbug/__init__.py
<empty>
---
ipbug/version.py:
from ipbug.vm import Version

---
ipbug/vm.py:
class Version:
      pass


Starting IPython, importing ipbug.version, and trying to dreload it, 
fails with 'ImportError: No module named ipbug.Version'.
I also wasn't able to checkout the cvs version ('Unknown host 
scipy.org.' after I entered the password), so I have only included a 
traceback for 0.5.0.

Thanks for the fantastic work on IPython,
- Ralf
