Execution failure under Ubuntu Hardy

[Peter]

I used the suggested commands:

$ sudo apt-get install python-tk python-imaging python-imaging-tk

which said I had python-imaging already, but installed blt, python-
imaging-tk, and python-tk OK.

$ cd pwytter-0.8
$ sudo python setup.py install

which installed setuptools and appeared to run OK. However, if I try
to run pwytter, I get the following. I've obviously misunderstood
something, but as a non-Pythonian, it's not clear what.

$ pwytter.py

I'm missing simplejson, presumably. Is there a repo/installer for
Python, like CPAN does for Perl?

You can first try adding the universe repository and install
python-simplejson from there. If you prefer not to install stuff from
universe, you can install python-setuptools and use easy_install.
