hg command unknown error

Recently I got a problem with hg that I can't even check the status of modification file. I got the error as below :

sokmesa@sokmesa-laptop:/var/www/my_project$ hg st

Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site.py", line 562, in <module>
   main()
 File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site.py", line 544, in main
   known_paths = addusersitepackages(known_paths)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site.py", line 271, in addusersitepackages
    user_site = getusersitepackages()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site.py", line 246, in getusersitepackages
    user_base = getuserbase() # this will also set USER_BASE
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site.py", line 236, in getuserbase
    USER_BASE = get_config_var('userbase')
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/sysconfig.py", line 558, in get_config_var
    return get_config_vars().get(name)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/sysconfig.py", line 438, in get_config_vars

    import sre_parse

Running dpkg-reconfigure didn't work for me, so I removed the .pyc files:

find /usr/lib/python2.7 -name \*.pyc -exec rm {} \;
