Not adding current directory to sys.path

See original GitHub issue

I can’t work out why some instances of ptpython add the current directory to sys.path. Most of my projects to date, using 0.41, do this with no issues, but in recent installations I’ve noticed that it is missing from sys.path. Is there a condition for this I’m missing? I can’t do basic imports. Stock python (3.6.4) interpreter and bpython - as a quick check - add the current directory without an issue. Tested in a variety of virtualenvs. $PYTHONPATH not set. Thanks.

I will probably release a new Jedi version (without major changes, but with the patch for this bug). It has been fixed since 4th of July, but hasn’t been released (I forgot to do that).

Closing this. ptpython has a workaround, and there is a new Jedi release.
