[New-bugs-announce] [issue8553] 2to3 breaks relative imports

[Jeffrey Yasskin]

New submission from Jeffrey Yasskin <jyasskin at gmail.com>:

2to3, at least the version in the python-2 tree, currently turns

  from . import refactor

into

  from .. import refactor

which breaks the transformation of 2to3 itself.  The attached patch fixes this and tests it.

Once someone's looked this over, where should I commit it? I'm not sure where 2to3 actually lives anymore.
