Subject: bug#42125: Python mode load failing due to some issue with tramp
Date: Mon, 29 Jun 2020 10:48:17 -0400 (EDT)

Package: emacs
Version: 26.3

Python mode load is failing due to some issue with tramp.  Likely a
loaddefs issue or something similar.  To reproduce, simply visit
a file with a .py extension.

Stack trace:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable tramp-default-user-alist)

  (if (member x tramp-default-user-alist) tramp-default-user-alist (setq tramp-default-user-alist (cons x tramp-default-user-alist)))

There's a workaround: deleting (require 'tramp-sh) from early in
python.el. Of course this disables some remote features.
