Django with psycopg2 plugin
django, python
Solution
I'm using pip as a part of my deployment process, so using apt-get wasn't a viable option for me.
I was able to run
sudo apt-get install libpq-dev
And remove python-psycopg2 from apt-get.
Then
pip install psycopg2
worked fine for me.
Problem
Ive been reading the Django Book and its great so far, unless something doesn't work properly. I have been trying for two days to install the psycogp2 plugin with no luck. i navigate to the unzipped directory and run setup.py install and it returns "You must have postgresql dev for building a serverside extension or libpq-dev for client side." I don't know what any of this means, and google returns results tossing a lot of terms I don't really understand. Ive been trying to learn django for abut a week now plus linux so any help would be great. Thanks Btw, I have installed postgresql and pgadminIII from installer pack. I also tried sudo apt-get post.... and some stuff happens...but Im lost.
