I get the correct behavior here:

  $ apt-cache policy python3-keyrings.alt | grep Installed
    Installed: 2.2-2
  $ python3.6
  Python 3.6.4 (default, Jan  5 2018, 02:13:53) 
  [GCC 7.2.0] on linux
  Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
  >>> import keyrings
  >>> keyrings.__file__
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  AttributeError: module 'keyrings' has no attribute '__file__'

Can you reproduce this issue in a clean environment?
