[Python] how to prevent python import from looking into the current directory

This should do the trick:

import sys
sys.path.remove('')

As they say in a certain other place--the answer is: yes! Python can

You will, I think, like the new distinction between ?absolute? and
?relative? imports <URL:http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0328/>.

Thanks a lot for your help.

He might, but it won't help him with his problem. Relative imports
aren't involved in this situation.

Do you have the 'os' module inside your 'personal' package? If you add

from __future__ import absolute_import

then

import os

imports the right 'os' module. With

from . import os

you can import the 'personal.os' module from a module inside 'personal'.

While the solutions given by others in this thread will work, I think it is best
policy to not name your own modules after stdlib ones. When I see "os"
referenced in code, I assume it is the stdlib one, and don't want to be confused
by the presence of your own module.

Yes, I have finally chosen this alternative: things are much simpler like
this.
Thanks
