Terry J. Reedy added the comment: I downloaded the 2.7.8 64-bit msi, installed over 2.7.7, and indeed got 2.7.8, which inports hmac fine.
Andreas, did you have 2.7.5/6 installed before? If so, I strongly suspect that the installer did not run (correctly). There might be an error log somewhere, but the likely fix is to remove your current 2.7.z and re-try 2.7.8 install, possibly after re-downloading. I once had to do something similar and there have been similar reports on python-list. ---------- nosy: +terry.reedy title: python windows 2.7.8 64-bit wrong binary version -> python windows 2.7.8 64-bit did not install _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22139> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
