Yes! Actually I also bumped into the annoying `ImportError: No module named django.core` problem, so fixing virtualenv would be a blessing. *But.. *I still think this is the wrong path, since python setuptools has a better solution for that with cross platform compatibility etc. Take a look at https://github.com/TurboGears/tg2devtools/blob/master/setup.py *vs * https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/setup.py you can see that Turbogears (as well as almost any other python webframework or commandline tool) uses setuptools entry points to establish a commandline script (under the working scripts/bin folder, according to the platform). why wouldn't Django do that? and then solve both problems in one shoot?
