Python软件包命名问题

Question

I have a python package named gutils, which contains a lot of useful tools for development, some of them are generic, some of them use reportlabs and the most important part forms a layer of abstraction on top of django, customizing a lot of default behaviour

I would like to keep the convention of the exterior interface similar to django's, as to not add complexity to the development proccess..

I have this structure (as an example):

    gutils
      |---- django
              |
              |----forms
                     |
                     |---widgets.py

The problem is, inside this widgets.py file, the imports resolve to the current subpackage. For example:

from django.forms import TextInput

Is treated as if it were:

from gutils.django.forms import TextInput

As a workaround, I've named the top-level package gdjango, but it looks awkward.

So, the question is:

Is there a way to reference the real django package from within the gutils.django package?

NOTE: I'm using python 3

If you're dealing with a package, for example, like this:

mypackage /
    mypackagesubdir /
        myfile.py
    mypackagesubdirII /
        myfileII.py

and you're editting myfile.py , import myfileII like import .mypackagessubdirII.myfileII . . means the root of the package.
