BitTorrent in slackware

I have been having trouble installing bittorrent. I know that you need to have the latest release of python, so I made sure I got that. But when I ran the python setup.py install I got this output:

Code:

bash-3.1# python setup.py install
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 20, in <module>
    from BitTorrent.platform import install_translation
  File "/home/tom/Desktop/BitTorrent-5.2.0/BitTorrent/__init__.py", line 49, in <module>
    from BitTorrent.platform import get_temp_subdir, get_dot_dir, is_frozen_exe
  File "/home/tom/Desktop/BitTorrent-5.2.0/BitTorrent/platform.py", line 120, in <module>
    from BTL.defer import ThreadedDeferred
  File "/home/tom/Desktop/BitTorrent-5.2.0/BTL/defer.py", line 15, in <module>
    from twisted.internet import defer
ImportError: No module named twisted.internet

I'm pretty sure i have the most recent python....

Thanks for any help!

Twisted is a separate python-package, which you seem to be missing.

Good luck!
