Python is installed in a local directory.
My directory tree looks like this:
(local directory)/site-packages/toolkit/interface.py
To all those who still have this issue. I believe Pycharm gets confused with imports. For me, when i write 'from namespace import something', the previous line gets underlined in red, signaling that there is an error, but works. However ''from .namespace import something' doesn't get underlined, but also doesn't work.
Try
try:
from namespace import something
except NameError:
from .namespace import something
