First Time with PA & Pip

I'm attempting to use django-taggit in my project. I've run pip and copied the files to my project's directory. Once I try syncdb I receive this output:

Traceback (most recent call last):  File "manage.py", line 10, in <module> execute_from_command_line(sys.argv)

File "/home/indigochild/AuditShopper/AuditShopper/taggit/models.py", line 7, in <module> from django.utils.encoding import python_2_unicode_compatible

ImportError: cannot import name python_2_unicode_compatible

My project uses Python 3.3. I used pip3.3 to install this. But my understanding from this output is that something is attempting to use the Python 2.7 site packages (where I have an older version of taggit sitting).

Am I understanding the problem right?

Agreed, that definitely looks like it's using Python 2.7. How are you running it? Is that stack trace from the web app's error log, or from a Bash console? If it's the latter, remember that you need to use the python3.3 command to run it, not just python -- the latter is always Python 2.7.

Thanks, Giles. python3.3 is exactly what I needed.
