Using PyImport_ExtendInittab with package

[Julien Danjou]

Hi,

I'm trying to embed Python and therefore use PyImport_ExtendInittab() to
register modules.
My current problem is that, if it works well with a simple module
"hello", naming a module "hello.foobar" in the inittab struct does not
seems to work.
imp.find_module("hello.foobar") returns correctly that the module is
found, but import hello.foobar fails badly.

Is . notation supported in inittab? Am I doing something wrong?

This is probably wrong in some detail, but I think you need to import
each level of a package separately. I.e. you need to import 'hello'
before you can import 'hello.foobar'.
