[Zope] Another import doesn't find the module

[Dylan Reinhardt]

Go back and look a little closer at the difference between what I typed
and what you're using.

Both your examples attempt to import from directories, something you
simply can't do... at least not *this* way.  In Python, the word
"module" refers, typically, to a .py file.  You can't find a module
called FGDC because (according to your diagram) there isn't one.

Once you re-work import to import names from modules, I think you'll
have better luck.

HTH,

Dylan
