Possible incompatibility with parasitics

[shyne99]

Hello,

I don't know if this is a specific issue with my setup, but I want to share it anyway had it might help others.

I have installed this plugin along with the Parasitics plugins, and I had a conflict regarding an internal module.

The impart plugin tried to import "search_recursive" from "s_expression_parse", but it tried to import it from "s_expression_parse" that exists inside parasitics.

Here is the error that I have. The impact is that impart does not work at all, it does not show up inside the plugins menu at all. After removing both plugins, restarting and reinstalling Impart, everything load and works as it should.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/mehdi/.local/share/kicad/8.0/3rdparty/plugins/com_github_Steffen-W_impartGUI/impart_action.py", line 18, in <module>

Hi @shyne99,
You have installed the other plugin from me. Unfortunately, this causes a conflict. It is best to uninstall parasitics then impart should work. I still have to solve this problem somehow. Unfortunately, I seem to have made a mistake when importing python libraries.
