scrapy

I've successfully setup Eclipse with my Scrapy project.

I did it by setting a new Run/Debug configuration :

Whose main module links to Scrapy /usr/local/bin/scrapy for me (I've found suggestion to use cmdline.py but that failed on my computer (OSX Lion & scrapy installed through easy_install)
Defining the arguments to send "crawl ny" in my case as I would if I used the Scrapy command line
Setting the correct working directory (${workspace_loc:My Project/src} in my case)

Eclipse can successfully launch my project, but I've no debbuger. I'm missing my breakpoints and variable inspection, does anyone know how to setup the debbugger with this environment ?
