Looks like you have compiled psycopg with Python 2.7.

Psycopg is compatible with Python 2.4. Just make sure you use the
right version when you build it:

    /path/to/python2.4 setup.py build
    sudo /path/to/python2.4 setup.py install

Take note of where the library is installed to. If you still get an
ImportError, check the path reported by the exception: you will likely
see that it's not the same path reported in installation. In this case
you may have to adjust the PYTHONPATH in order to avoid confusion
across the different python versions you have installed in your
system.
