urllilb.request.urlopen doesn't run interactively

Noticed this while looking at getiabooks activity.

Steps to reproduce.

• Open python interactively.
• Run this line interactively.

The line you refer to reads;

    self._info = urllib.request.urlopen(self._url)

What string value are you using in place of self._url?

The line works for me;

>>> import urllib.request
>>> r = urllib.request.urlopen('https://sugarlabs.org/')
>>> █

The line has run interactively.

The line looks fine according to the documentation.

Earlier I was using this link

It seems just importing urllib and trying to access request from there doesn't work, I tried this earlier and it still returns the same result.

>>> import urllib
>>> urllib.request.urlopen
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: module 'urllib' has no attribute 'request'

This works as expected.

>>> import urllib.request
>>> urllib.request.urlopen
