Question

I setup PyDev with this path for the python interpreter
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/Python
since the one under /usr/bin were alias and Eclipse won’t select it. I can run my python script now but cannot run the shell as an external tool. The message I get is

variable references empty selection ${resource_loc}

Same if I use {container_loc}

Any thoughts ?

I installed the Python.org version as well, this is a must.

I finally got PyDev working in Eclipse by pointing the interpreter to:

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/bin/python

manually. If you don’t do it manually (by using the Autoconfig) it seems to not find the right version.
