New install of bittorrent errors out
 

I'm running mandrake 9.1, and I installed bittorrent 3.3-3 via urpmi.
Tried telling Mozilla to open a .torrent with it, but it didn't so then I tried to invoke directly at the command line. When I try to run btdownloadgui or curses I get:

%btdownloadcurses.py blah.torrent
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/btdownloadcurses.py", line 6, in ?
from BitTorrent.download import download
File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/BitTorrent/download.py", line 4, in ?
from zurllib import urlopen
File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/BitTorrent/zurllib.py", line 11, in ?
from urllib import *
ImportError: No module named urllib

I've googled around, but I only find a few references to anything similar, and none seem to be related. Any insight or suggestions most appreciated.
