it seems that without something like

cat /home/username/.local/lib/python3.13/site-packages/_00__force_editable_order.pth

/home/username/Repos/HPI-personal
/home/username/Repos/HPI
/home/username/Repos/HPI-karlicoss/src

my.location.all will use the one from HPI-karlicoss despite me having the __path__ like suggested in purarue/google_takeout_parser#90

will have to do more testing, not sure if I just have extra editble.pth files, if Im using --use-pep517 everywhere etc.

[purarue]

using this for now, will disable __init__.py and play with it at some point in the future

Hmm this is surprising!
I just did an experiment with your repos. Checked via the following snippet

import my.location as L
print(L.__path__)
import my.location.all as LA
print(LA.__file__)

• when using your repo as the last in config:

  $ cat /code/hpi_private/src/my/__init__.py
  __path__[:] = [
      "/code/hpi_private/src/my",
      "/code/hpi_overlay/src/my",
      "/code/hpi/src/my",
      "/code/HPI-purarue-personal/my",
      "/code/HPI_purarue/my",
  
  ]
  

  _NamespacePath(['/code/hpi/src/my/location', '/code/HPI-purarue-personal/my/location', '/code/HPI_purarue/my/location'])
  /code/hpi/src/my/location/all.py
  

  As expected

  • __path__ ordering for my.location is correct
  • all.py is imported from my repo.

• when using your 'personal' repo as the first one in list:

  $ cat /code/hpi_private/src/my/__init__.py
  __path__[:] = [
      "/code/HPI-purarue-personal/my",
      "/code/hpi_private/src/my",
      "/code/hpi_overlay/src/my",
      "/code/hpi/src/my",
      "/code/HPI_purarue/my",
  ]
  

  _NamespacePath(['/code/HPI-purarue-personal/my/location', '/code/hpi/src/my/location'])
  /code/HPI-purarue-personal/my/location/all.py
  

  • import order is as expected, your repo goes first
  • all.py is from your personal repo!

Wonder what's different between our setups...
Here's what my relevant portion of virtualenv looks like in case it helps.

There are a bunch of other .pth files, but they all are from other projects installed in editable mode, I haven't used reorder_editable in this virtualenv at all!

Thanks for the exploration, I will try creating a virtualenv and testing this when I have some time -- thanks 👍
