Using GoogleAppEngine with Python in Eclipse

A while back I asked this question "Using Google App Engine template from PyDev in Eclipse on Mac" and got a response. I've come back to this endeavour and find I now get a different error when trying to create a project:

Invalid Google App Engine directory. Did not find: /Applications/GoogleAppEngineLauncher.app/Contents/Resources/GoogleAppEngine-default.bundle/Contents/Resources/google_appengine/lib/django

Sure enough, I browsed around and can see:

{snip}/google_appengine/lib/django_0_96 and {snip}/google_appengine/lib/django_1_2

but no

{snip}/google_appengine/lib/django

What's a kid to do?

Wow, I feel like some kind of hardcore Mac expert.

I created a symlink like so:

ln -s "/usr/local/google_appengine/lib/django_1_2/" "/usr/local/google_appengine/lib/django"

And all seems well. Should I expect ill effects from this fix/hack?
