I have downloaded the zip archive (my only option) and installed it as suggested by unzipping into the dropin folder. When I try to start a project the problem occurs:
"Plug-in org.python.pydev was unable to load class org.python.pydev.ui.wizard.project.PythonProjectWizard"
I've googled and the only suggestion is to re-download and re-install as it might be a corrupted install. Done that, no good. Any more suggestions? Seems PyDev have a lot of troubles getting the zip alternative to work... (judging by other similar posts)
This is regardless of Eclipse version.
I run under WinXP.
I had no luck with this. Eventually I had to download it through Eclipse download manager and it worked. I guess they have some issues with the automatic plugin functionality.
