Usually Django applications are specific to Django and are not really usable outside Django. That's why seeing "tagging" in my site-packages directory might confuse me as I could think that this package supports some general tagging. Valts. On Mon, Nov 3, 2008 at 3:51 PM, James Bennett <[EMAIL PR

Do you absolutely require the name or would it be enough for you to have an isolated environment for your django-related packages? In this case take a look at virtualenv and to some extend also buildout :-) http://pypi.python.org/pypi/virtualenv http://pypi.python.org/pypi/zc.buildout -- Horst

I run into this issue all the time since I put all of my apps in "site-packages/django_apps/*", the only thing you can do is manually change the imports to fit your naming structure So for all mine I have to edit the imports and prepend "django_apps." for all of the internal imports (eg. "from dj

HI, This is semi-off topic, but it is a python question. I'm trying to use some of the generic django applications, like django- tagging. Taking django-tagging, for example, it requires me to symlink the source folder to "site-packages/tagging". However, I want to keep site-packages structured a
