AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'MutableSet'

I installed BitTornado without root access by downloading the zip and running command 'pip install -e path/to/bittornado/'. The installation was successful but when I tried using it for downloading the file, the following error occurred --
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'MutableSet'.
The following screenshot has the details.

BitTornado Error

I'm new to Python. If someone know what's happening, please help. Thanks in advance.

BitTornado only supports python3 (and not python2.x). The specific error is due to a change in python3 which makes imports absolute by default (unless the relative import syntax is used) -- as such it is importing the BitTorando.Types.collections module for import collections.

I'd suggest making a python3 virtualenv and installing BitTornado there. (Or if you want a system-wide installation, use pip3 install ...)
