      Install python-bsonjs latest from source and any version of pymongo, then try to import something from bson. It will fail like this:

      >>> from bson import encode
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: cannot import name 'encode' from 'bson' (unknown location)

      bsonjs is shadowing the bson package from pymongo:

      >>> import bson
>>> bson
<module 'bson' (<_frozen_importlib_external.NamespaceLoader object at 0x102f51550>)>
>>> dir(bson)
['__doc__', '__file__', '__loader__', '__name__', '__package__', '__path__', '__spec__', 'binary', 'codec_options', 'errors', 'objectid', 'typings', 'tz_util']
>>> bson.__spec__
ModuleSpec(name='bson', loader=<_frozen_importlib_external.NamespaceLoader object at 0x102f51550>, submodule_search_locations=_NamespacePath(['/Users/shane/git/python-bsonjs/src/bson']))

      This was caused by PYTHON-3882.
