PyDev Eclipse Python interpreters Error: stdlib not found

Question

I have been trying to use Eclipse 3.6 as a Python editor. I install the latest version of PyDev, and then try to set the Interpreter - Python field of the preferences, on my ma

Answer 1

I found the solution of not touching macs deliverd python version, but downloading ad installing a new one (currently 3.something)

when setting up the interpreter, point to /usr/local/bin/pyhton3

(to find out the exact path open terminal and type: sudo -s !hittenter> your password !hittenter> cd /usr/local/bin !hittenter> ls !hittenter>) -> what this does is, showing you the content of the folder you went to. you should find the python interpreter in there.

WARNING!!!! Do not touch or change any other python files/folders delivered with your mac.
