I updated the mac to Mountain Lion (10.8) and now the project I developed with Python and Google App Engine does not work.

GAE libraries are found, while standard Python libraries (are these Python libraries?) are missed (e.g. cgi, logging, json).

When I open eclipse (which has PyDeV) I receive this alert:

abort: couldn't find mercurial libraries in 
[/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/  /usr/local/bin

/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages] (check your install and
PYTHONPATH). Command line: hg -y debuginstall

Does anyone know how to fix this?
