I'm having trouble using the vendor-supplied boto3 on Ubuntu Trusty. Has anyone else run into this issue, and if so how did you resolve?
FWIW, boto3 works fine in a venv on the same machine, so I think this is a packaging issue. I need to make boto3 available on 1000+ machines, so using the vendor-supplied package is desirable.
I tried installing lxml, cssselect, and requests manually as described in How to fix ImportError: No module named packages.urllib3? but that didn't solve the problem.
Thanks,
Jeffrey

On the same machine, installing boto3 in a venv seems to work fine. (At least I'm able to create a ServiceResource() object.)
