This doesnt have anything to do with python. Its unsafe to execute arbitrary python, so the plugin mirroring service instead has an adhoc parser that I wrote based on the python stdlib ast module to extract plugin metadata from __init__.py, without needing to execute anything. Over the years as plugin developers have gotten more creative in how they choose to define versions the parser has had to support more and more python syntax. In this case, it was tripping up on import common and version = common.WHATEVER if you had instead done from common import WHATEVER version = WHATEVER it would have worked, already, but no big deal, since the fix was fairly simple.
