manage.py test broken on Python 2.6 with unittest2 installed

[ukch]

Steps to reproduce:

• Enable django-pdb in a project
• Run manage.py test

The following traceback is generated:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./manage.py", line 14, in <module>
    execute_manager(settings)
  File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 438, in execute_manager

    from django_pdb.testrunners import PdbTestSuiteRunner

    class PdbTestResult(ExceptionTestResultMixin, unittest._TextTestResult):
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute '_TextTestResult'

This can be fixed in one of two ways:

• Doing from django.utils import unittest instead of import unittest, and depending on Django >= 1.3.
• Doing if sys.version_info[:2] < (2, 7): import unittest2 as unittest and depending on unittest2 if Python version is less than 2.7.

Apologies. I wrote this issue before looking at the code. The problem arises when unittest2 is installed - django does a from unittest2 import *, which doesn't import 'private' objects such as _TextTestResult. However, it would appear that TextTestResult and _TextTestResult are the same object, so this can probably be fixed by changing the call to use TextTestResult instead, unless you know of a good reason not to?
