Running into some nasty issues.

I have a structure like this, installed as a package in the workspace once installed by pip in the venv:

mailman_customizations/ __init__.py hooks.py  <-- plugin definition in here as MailmanCustomizations for class name handlers/ __init__.py handlers.py  <-- custom handler in here pipelines/ __init__.py pipelines.py  <-- custom pipelines which implement the handlers here.

However, whenever I specify this in config with this clause:

[plugin.MailmanCustomizations] class: mailman_customizations.hooks.MailmanCustomizations enabled: no

Change this to

[plugin.mailman_customizations] class: mailman_customizations.hooks.MailmanCustomizations enabled: yes

FWIW You can also do:

[plugin.MailmanCustomizations]
class: mailman_customizations.hooks.MailmanCustomizations
enabled: no
component_package: mailman_customizations

In ^ case, the "name" of the plugin, "MailmanCustomizations" in this case, doesn't matter and can be anything and mailman will use "component_package" as the base module to look for components.
