Bug report
For the following tree, where ./b is not a package, PathFinder.find_spec("a.b") raises an undocumented KeyError:
.
├── a
│ ├── b.py
└── b
>>> from importlib.machinery import PathFinder
>>> PathFinder.find_spec("a.b")
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap_external>", line 1439, in find_spec
File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap_external>", line 1218, in __init__
File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap_external>", line 1233, in _get_parent_path
KeyError: 'a'Works as expected if a is provided as the path argument:
>>> PathFinder.find_spec("a.b", path=["a"])
ModuleSpec(name='a.b', loader=<_frozen_importlib_external.SourceFileLoader object at 0x100d37d30>, origin='/Users/myuser/a/b.py')Your environment
