import curses as _curses
/opt/circleci/python/2.7.11/lib/python2.7/curses/__init__.py:15: in <module>
from _curses import *
E ImportError: No module named _curses
when running Python tests.
From what I see here:
it looks like a package was not present on the circleci VM when python was compiled and curses is missing.
Is there a way around this?
Update: I was using the package colour-runner that adds color to the Django tests display and this was causing the problem. I have removed the package but I still wonder why I only get an error in the CircleCI container and not my local Ubuntu 14.04 machine
