[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

Is pyserial installed?
rpm -qi pyserial

Hello Mike,
Pyserial was not installed and doing the install solved the problem. Thank you very much.
I did a fresh install from a live spin, and I knew python was installed. I didn't check all the parts, though I should have. Don't ever remember having to install pyserial separately.
Hope this reply makes it to the list. My prior message apparently didn't.

Glad to hear that solved the problem.
Pyserial should be a dependancy, I'll check the RPM build script and verify.

This might be getting a bit off topic for Chirp but the F26 I installed was the Mate Live spin.
Thanks again.
