On my system, when I've simply downloaded the SVN version rather than using the Debian package for Django, I've had to add a .pth file here as well. bash$ echo killdjangokill > killdjangokill.pth bash$ echo mysite > mysite.pth to get them to show up on the path. Might help you too? I have my system set up so that I have site-packages/django double-dereference as a link. I have it pointing to a place I control as a non-root user, and then that link points to my flavor of the moment: ======================================== [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/django$ ls -lsF /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ | grep django 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 2007-04-29 13:32 django -> /home/django/django/ 4 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7 2007-04-29 13:32 django.pth [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/django$ ls -lsF total 3 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 tim tim 12 2007-05-26 17:12 django -> trunk/django/ 1 drwxr-xr-x 9 tim tim 1024 2007-03-19 21:37 newforms-admin/ 1 drwxr-xr-x 9 tim tim 1024 2007-08-11 13:04 per-object-permissions/ 1 drwxr-xr-x 9 tim tim 1024 2007-09-24 05:54 trunk/ ======================================== It doesn't work quite so well in a shared environment where one person can screw up which version of Django everybody else is working from. However. in such an environment, you can use a stock install for public use, and then override it for yourself via the PYTHONPATH environment variable. I don't know if it's of any help to you, but it suffices for my needs :) > Now my problem is that I'm such a rank beginner w/Python & pdb (really > *well-documented* debugger there, incidentally</sarcasm>) [chuckles at having experienced similar frustrations with pdb] -tim --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
