[Python-modules-team] Bug#845485: pymodbus: python-serial is required

[Matthias Urlichs]

Source: pymodbus
Version: 1.2.0-2
Severity: normal

>>> from pymodbus.client.sync import ModbusTcpClient as ModbusClient
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pymodbus/client/sync.py", line 2, in <module>
    import serial
ImportError: No module named serial
>>> 

i.e. even if you don't have a serial port, python-serial must be present
for pymodbus to be usable.
