Thanks for reporting. This is a known issue and it should be addressed in the new App Engine SDK release. In the meantime you can add this workaround to your application's
appengine_config.py.jerjou commentedon Oct 31, 2016
Hm... testing should have caught this when dpebot updated dependencies, no?
theacodes commentedon Oct 31, 2016
@jerjou nope.
jkatrenic commentedon Oct 31, 2016
The workaround works fine, thanks @jonparrott .
Hope you will fix it soon.

Hello. I got same error ImportError: No module named pwd.
That was after imported "requests" module.
Who can somebody explain about it?
Waiting for somebody reply...
theacodes commentedon Nov 14, 2017
This should be fine with the latest SDK, alternatively you can use the workaround I linked in #626 (comment)
code-mentor7 commentedon Nov 14, 2017
Thanks for your reply.
You mean, Google App Engine SDK?
code-mentor7 commentedon Nov 14, 2017
your SDK version?
theacodes commentedon Nov 14, 2017
Yes, as in the App Engine SDK / Cloud SDK.
code-mentor7 commentedon Nov 14, 2017
OK. Please let me know your skype.
code-mentor7 commentedon Nov 14, 2017
jonparrott. Are you there?
