I'm not sure all of this churn is worth it for an unusual use case that can be satisfied by: >>> sorted(pkgutil.iter_modules(None), key=lambda x: (x[1], x[2]) or even: >>> sorted(pkgutil.iter_modules(None), key=operator.itemgetter(1)) (assuming that ispkg doesn't really need to be part of the key) Before reviewing the patch, I suggest you raise the issue on python-dev and get some additional input.
