title: Python error: ImportError: cannot import name Akismet
body: <p>I've seen many similar errors, but I can't see a solution that applies to my particular problem.</p>
  
  <p>I'm trying to use the <a href="http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/akismet_python.html#downloading" rel="noreferrer">Akismet module</a> which is on my PYTHONPATH, then if I start up the interactive interpreter, when I run  <code>from akismet import Akismet</code> (as the docstring says), I get the following error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>from akismet import Akismet
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "&lt;stdin&gt;", line 1, in &lt;module&gt;
  ImportError: cannot import name Akismet
  </code></pre>
