Bug ID: 71788
Summary: version.getfileversion does not work on py3, and
should be rewritten
Product: Pywikibot
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: General
Assignee: Pywikipedia-bugs(a)lists.wikimedia.org

In verbose logging, the log is supposed to contain a list of the pywikibot
modules loaded at startup, however on py3 it logs not modules.
The problem is the eval does not set local variable __version__
http://git.wikimedia.org/blob/pywikibot%2Fcore.git/9ca1b85c367b381947426c26…
In addition, the algorithm is dodgy.
It checks every module name to see if it is a part of pywikibot, which is
problematic if pywikibot has a module which has the same name as another
package, and this approach also unnecessarily tries to stat many files which
will not exist.
If it does find a pywikibot file, it reads the file to find __version__ even
though Python has already loaded the module. it then exec's the first line
which contains __version__, assuming it is an assignment to __version__.
module versions could be merged into version.package_versions(), as it already
supports different types of entries (builtins, standard library)
