ImportError: No module named binascii

[Dieter]

Hi there,

I installed python 2.7 from the tar ball on python.org. the
installation was pretty uneventful. However, I need to run someone
elses python code and get the error message

ImportError: No module named binascii

Any recommendations how to correct this? Is there another tar file
somewhere that I can download to install this missing module?

Thanks a lot in advance.
