[New-bugs-announce] [issue9429] 2to3 does not rename test.test_support to test.support

[Alexander Belopolsky]

New submission from Alexander Belopolsky <belopolsky at users.sourceforge.net>:

Even though test.support is an internal module, it is helpful to have a 2to3 fixer for the 'test_support' to 'support' rename.

My naive attempt to add a fix (see patch pasted below), worked for "from test import test_support" but not for "import test.test_support.
