Sphinx Travis build reoccuring problem: cannot import read_table_hdf5 #6604
Description
There's a failure I've been seeing regularly with sphinx that doesn't seem to depend on flaky internet problems:
Exception occurred:
File "/home/travis/build/astropy/astropy/build/lib.linux-x86_64-3.6/astropy/io/misc/connect.py", line 6, in <module>
from .hdf5 import read_table_hdf5, write_table_hdf5, is_hdf5
ImportError: cannot import name 'read_table_hdf5'
Unfortunately I don't have any log for astropy but I have one on my local fork: https://travis-ci.org/MSeifert04/astropy/jobs/279343905#L2495

okay, it also just happened on a PR: https://travis-ci.org/astropy/astropy/jobs/279463524#L2505

And it happens also on rtd: http://readthedocs.org/projects/astropy/builds/6014269/
It would be useful to have a full log.

Here's another data point, FWIW: https://travis-ci.org/astropy/astropy/jobs/279610210

I can actually reproduce this locally on Python 3.6 env. I suspect circular import. Investigating.

Even after merging #6607 the error persists:
Given that it reports line 8 it seems like it has picked up the change but still failed.

@astrofrog , since you are listed for
io.misc, can I move the functions fromhdf5.pytoconnect.py?astrofrog commentedon Sep 26, 2017
My worry is that
connect.pymight then have several file formats in it. What about instead regisetring the functions insidehdf5.py- would that work?MSeifert04 commentedon Sep 26, 2017
I think it's reproducible: in a fresh interpreter try
from astropy.io.misc import hdf5. That does fail with the encountered message.
