#1168 reports that
PackageLoaderno longer works when the package is being tested by Pytest. This is because the rewrite to remove pkg_resources depends on Pytest's rewrite hook providing behavior that is only optional according to PEP 451. The fix was to use other APIs provided by PEP 451 #1169, but that turned out to be incompatible with Python 2. Therefore the changes are reverted in 2.11, and instead will only be present in 3.0.
