error[E0603]: struct import `One` is private

note: ...and refers to the struct `One` which is defined here

2 | pub struct One();

help: import `One` through the re-export

Rationale and extra context
The suggestion is invalid. If i try to apply it i get the error:
error[E0432]: unresolved import `crate::two::one`
--> src/lib.rs:11:27
|
11 | use crate::two::{Two, one::One};
| ^^^ could not find `one` in `two`
It should suggest to import One from the correct location, but gets confused by the private import. I found this when moving a struct that is used in two places from one to the other.

Anything else?
I am unsure if this is even the correct error, as it says that the struct is private. Instead it maybe should give the error i get after applying the suggestion about not being able to resolve it immediately.
