If you import django from a zip file and some i18n utils fail (i.e
django.views.i18n.javascript_catalog)
Steps:
1. import django as zip file
2. setup a javascript translation different from default with some
strings, i.e locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/djangojs.{po,mo}
3. setup javascript_catalog view
4. make a request like http://server/i18n/?language=es
- expected result:
spanish catalog should be returned in javascript file
- result:
default language catalog is returned in javascript file

Comment:
Django can't be packaged as a Python egg, in particular because it's hard
to retrieve the templates and translation files.
If I understand correctly, by "importing from a zipfile", you mean
"running from an egg", so it's a duplicate of #596.

I think it is actually a duplicate of #8280.
The Django installation docs make reference to installing as an egg, there
are various accepted patches for running from a zip file (eg #8238 and the
aforementioned #8280), and apparently it is (was?) the preferred (only?)
way to run Django on Google App Engine. - see
https://developers.google.com/appengine/articles/django10_zipimport as
well as other comments in those bugs.
