I am debugging some python code in emacs using pdb and getting some import issues. The dependencies are installed in one of my bespoked virtualenv environments.
Pdb is stubbornly using /usr/bin/python and not the python process from my virtualenv.
I use virtualenv.el to support switching of environments within emacs and via the postactivate hooks described in
http://jesselegg.com/archives/2010/03/14/emacs-python-programmers-2-virtualenv-ipython-daemon-mode/
This works well when running M-x python-shell
>>> import sys
>>> print sys.path
This points to all of my virtualenv libraries indicating that the python-shell is that of my virtualenv.
This is contradicted however by M-! which python, which gives /usr/bin/python
Does anyone know how I can tell M-x pdb to adopt the python process from the currently active virtualenv?
