I've spent a lot of time on this and it's clearly beyond my newbie understanding/skills. I tried to install django-heroku-memcacheify with pip install, which throws errors. I tracked the problem down to pylibmc, which is causing all the problems. Here's one of the interesting parts of the error log:
_pylibmcmodule.h:42:36: error: libmemcached/memcached.h: No such file or directory
here's the (almost) complete traceback:

So here's the deal
I can't test it in my local env b/c I'm running on a windows piece of crap. But from what I've read libmemcached is already installed on heroku. And nobody else seems to have any problems with pylibmc because I couldn't find anything on google. In this post they are talking about:
that if they detect that you are loading pylibmc, they will bootstrap libmemcached for you
That might be the problem, either it's not provided or the path is wrong. Any help is appreciated! if this doesn't work out I'll have to use Redis which seems to be a lot harder... don't know if I'm advanced enough for that.
Edit Might be irrelevant, but I'm using a settings folder with init instead of a settings.py file. I've heard that this can lead to some strange behaviour since heroku doesn't always remember that this is possible.
Edit 2
Since there are hundreds of people runnning memcached and django on heroku without any problems, I don't think that heroku-users are supposed to install libmemcached with some sort of hack. The docs talk about it as if it is bootstrapped for you when heroku detects pylibmc in your requirements file. Which leads me to the conclusion: A) either there is something wrong in my settings or in one of the apps I use or B) heroku changed something recently and broke the automatic bootstrapping of libmemcached for django. I've tried to get a fresh install with heroku config:add CLEAN_VIRTUALENV=true but that's not working either right now. I'm hoping that it's A and somebody has had the same problem. If it's B I have no idea how to solve it.
