[issue10688] pydoc removes lib directory

CZ report at bugs.python.org
Sun Dec 12 23:38:45 CET 2010


New submission from CZ <huangj at qualcomm.com>:

when pydoc is run with "python -m" (e.g., "python -m pydoc map"),
you will receive an error message: No module named tempfile.

The reason is pydoc removes 'C:\Python26\lib' (in my case) from sys.path.

But you can run it as "python <full path to pydoc.py>" because the lib directory appears twice in the sys.path in such situation.
