I was having same issue. Easy way to do is install pip and install pymongo.

wget --no-check-certificate https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py python get-pip.py python -m pip install pymongo

I was having the same issue and I installed it manually like this:

$ wget http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/p/pymongo/pymongo-2.3.tar.gz
$ tar xzf pymongo-2.3.tar.gz
$ cd pymongo-2.3
$ python setup.py install

Works for me. Good luck.

I had the same problem. Pymongo conflicts with the bson package. This worked for me:

sudo pip uninstall pymongo
sudo pip uninstall bson
sudo apt-get remove python-bson
sudo apt-get remove python-gridfs    # not sure if it's necessary
sudo pip install pymongo -U
