    undocumented functions in pkgutil

    I see that the pkgutil module has many useful functions which are
    however undocumented.
    Does anybody know why it is so? In particolar, can I safely use
    pkg.walk_packag es
    without risking a change of interface in the future? I looks unlikely,
    since pkgutil is
    used in setuptools, but I want to be sure before relying on it.

      We don't change the API of undocumented functions. However, if you
      find these functions useful and would like to work on documenting
      these, please email docs@python.org.
