django-templatetags

I just installed django-compress (http://code.google.com/p/django-compress) into /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages/compress.

I added 'compress' to INSTALLED_APPS.

In my template file, I wrote {% load compressed %}. I got the error:

'compressed' is not a valid tag library: Could not load template library from django.templatetags.compressed, No module named compressed

I verified that there is an init.py in compress, as well as in compress/templatetags/. I tried putting the compress directory into PYTHONPATH. I ran python and wrote "import compress" and that worked.

Your suggestions would be very appreciated! What else can I try?
