[Pkg-zsh-devel] Bug#691638: zsh: completion for python -m should be implemented without import all modules

[Sebastian Ramacher]

Package: zsh
Version: 5.0.0-2
Severity: normal

The completion for "python -m" is pretty useless. According to the code
it tries to import every module. In view #691634 that just doesn't work
and furthermore warnings (e.g. from twisted.words.im) are displayed so
the screen gets messed up.

Additionally, the completion doesn't support submodules. For example,
"python -m bpython.c" doesn't complete to "python -m bpython.cli".

Regards
