If you look at https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/0f914b5b5f6ba186afd7112fc851c97247076f70/Lib/importlib/resources.py#L247 you will notice that the generator for importlib.resources.contents() return an empty list. While the intent was to have no values be returned by contents(), by virtue of being a generator that empty list is actually being returned as a value. | |||

Note that this is in the case where a user is asking for the contents of a namespace package (which by definition, can't have resources). +1 on fixing this API wart. Will you @brett.cannon will submit a PR? I'll do a quick review and then backport the change to the standalone library. | |||

I had to stare at it for a while since I knew it was for namespace packages and I'm so used to them returning a magical value to signal that fact, but then realize we don't even support namespace packages so it wasn't magical at all. ;) And yes, I'll do a PR and make you a reviewer probably this Friday. | |||
