Stackless installation and configuration with DJango

Question

I am trying to run a DJango Command Extension which uses stackless.

I have installed Stackless Python (compiled with python 2.5) so whenever I type python2.5 at the console it fires up indicating that the version is Python 2.5.2 Stackless 3.1b3 060516 (python-2.52:72942, May 26 2009, 23:07:34) [GCC 4.3.3] on linux2

But in my eclipse I have configured my django application to run with python2.6. Specifically in the PyDev settings. So obviously when I mention import stackless it says that there is no such package.

The problem is even if I add the '/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages' directory it does not import stackless.

What is the solution to this issue ?

Answer 1

I think the solution would be to point eclipse at your 2.5 stackless installation unless you have a very good reason to use 2.6 over 2.5?

...or recompile for 2.6 and add it to your 2.6 installation.
