ImportError: No module named CollectD_CSV

Ubuntu 14.10
Python 2.7.6 from official repo.
Collectd_CSV is installed using python-pip:

# pip install collectd-csv

  Downloading collectd-csv-0.6.1.tar.gz
  Running setup.py (path:/tmp/pip_build_root/collectd-csv/setup.py)

But when I try to use it, it fails:

>>> import CollectD_CSV
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist- packages/CollectD_CSV/__init__.py",
line 1, in <module>
    from CollectD_CSV.CollectD_CSV import *
ImportError: No module named CollectD_CSV

How to solve this problem?

Thanks for the report. It seems to work when you change the one line in

/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/CollectD_CSV/__init__.py

to:

from CollectD_CSV import *

If you're in a hurry, just apply this fix locally for now. I'm just wondering how it has worked for me before. I'm a bit busy now, but I'll release a new version in pip when I have some more time.

Ok, this trick works well.
