Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
Apparently it was the template import that broke it.
{{{
#!python
>>> from django.conf import settings
>>> from django import template
EnvironmentError: Environment variable DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE is
undefined.
}}}
Interleaving a configure() call fixed it:
{{{
#!python
>>> from django.conf import settings
>>> settings.configure(TEMPLATE_DIRS=('/home/username/templates'))
>>> from django import template
}}}
The docs could be a bit more explicit about what "using" code before
calling configure() means. Calling code in the middle of imports is a bit
unintuitive (and ugly, at least to me).
