pydev importerror: no module named thread, debugging no longer works after pydev upgrade
Question: My Eclipse 3.6 /PyDev setup just did a pydev upgrade to 1.6.0.2010071813 and
debugging no longer works. My default python interpreter is 3.1 although I
doubt that matters. Until the Eclipse upgrade of pydev, it was working very
nicely.


Answer: This is already fixed in the current nightly (1.6.1). See:
<http://pydev.org/download.html> for details on getting it.

Note that you can just change that "import thread" locally (in
org.python.pydev.debug/pysrc/pydevd.py) for:

    
    
    try:    
        import thread 
    except ImportError:
        import _thread as thread #Py3K changed it.
    

Cheers,

Fabio
