when go django shell , can perform following import no issue django.utils.six.moves import http_client. after import http_client performed dir(http_client) , can see responses object, reason when try import using django.utils.six.moves.http_client import responses importerror: no module named http_client. frustrating least.

it looks hitting issue 2969. should work if upgrade django 1.6 1.6.11. however, please note 1.6 end of life , not receive security fixes, ideally should upgrade latest supported version of django or latest lts.
