vcrpy doesn't work under django?

I’m trying to use vcrpy to accelerate the execution of my django application test suite. I’m using django 1.7 on Mac, with Python 2.7.

I added the following couple of lines to one of my tests:

     import vcr
     with vcr.use_cassette('recording.yaml'):

The result is an import error:

    import vcr
  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vcr/__init__.py", line 2, in <module>
    from .config import VCR
  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vcr/config.py", line 6, in <module>
    from .cassette import Cassette
  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vcr/cassette.py", line 12, in <module>
    from .patch import CassettePatcherBuilder
  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vcr/patch.py", line 8, in <module>
    from .stubs import VCRHTTPConnection, VCRHTTPSConnection
  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vcr/stubs/__init__.py", line 9, in <module>
    from six.moves.http_client import (
ImportError: No module named http_client

The problematic code in stubs/init.py is :

import six
from six.moves.http_client import (
    HTTPConnection,
    HTTPSConnection,
    HTTPMessage,
    HTTPResponse,
)

This code seems to run fine when I’m just running it from a plain python console, but it results in the above ImportError under django.

Closing bc no one seems to have this issue anymore.

FWIW, I’m using vcrpy 1.10.2 to help in testing an application built with Django 1.9.6 and Django Rest Framework 3.3.3 with no issues.
