[chirp_users] Chirp on Fedora 26 Error: No module named serial

Hello group,

Just downloaded Chirp on Fedora 26 for the first time. Tried to run it from the command line and received the message below:

[fred@m5a97r2 chirp-daily-20170714]$ ./chirpw Traceback (most recent call last): File "./chirpw", line 23, in <module> from chirp.drivers import * File "/home/fred/Downloads/chirp-test/chirp-daily-20170714/chirp/drivers/idrp.py", line 16, in <module> import serial ImportError: No module named serial

I have had no problems with older versions of Fedora and my internet search hasn't provided any answers. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Fred
