cannot import name ugettext_lazy

[Wayne Dyck]

A couple of applications I have tried to install fail trying to import
ugettext_lazy. Specifically the import line is:

django.utils.translation import ugettext_lazy as _

I have seen a number of posts that suggest getting the latest source
from SVN. I have Django version 96.2 and I have downloaded the latest
1.0 alpha (or something close to that) from SVN. The ugettext_lazy is
missing from both.

Any help or suggestions on what I have missed would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Wayne

Make sure you have an SVN checkout at revision 8680 or higher. This:

http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/8654

looks like it could be responsible for what you are reporting, and the fix
was only checked in about five hours ago.

No, that's unrelated. The __all__ variable is only relevant for the
"from foo import *" style of imports. When importing by name, it looks
directly in the module.

I think the original poster's tarball of Django is broken. At least the
1.0-alpha version is. The 0.96 releases never had ugettext_lazy().

The function has been in trunk since July 4, 2007 (when the unicode
branch was merged in [5609]). If ugettext_lazy() was made unavailable,
it would take about 15 seconds for the bugs to be reported. It's used
all over the place, even inside Django.

Malcolm

So I should be seeing it at this location django.utils.translation in
the latest SVN beta? I browsed the code today on the website and
didn't see it in there.

Is this something simple that I am missing?

Well, it's int django/utils/translation/__init__.py. Specifically:

It looks like it was just checked in a little while ago. I will
download the latest from SVN and try that.

Thanks. I appreciate it.

No, it wasn't. I'm really not making this up: ugettext_lazy() has been
in trunk since July 4 last year!

It was added to __all__ a few hours ago, but that is irrelevant to the
question you asked, as I indicated in my reply to Karen. If you're
actually doing "from django.utils.translation import *" and then trying
to use ugettext_lazy, that would be a different story, but that wasn't
what you said you were doing.

Malcolm

Bizarre. Okay. I will take your word for it. I am fairly new to Django
so I am not excusing the fact that it might simply be ignorance on my
part how everything works and the location of the functions.

I will download the latest from SVN, try again, and let you know how I
make out.

Thanks again for your information.

Wayne
