Could you please re-install it, or could I do that

You can install modules locally fairly easily. The process is pretty much:
$ python setup.py install --prefix=$HOME
Then you need to make sure that $PYTHONPATH includes your site-packages
directory. You can check $PYTHONPATH with echo. To change it, edit .bashrc
or .bash_profile to include something like...
export PYTHONPATH="/home/user:/home/user/lib/python2.6/site-packages"
You can also run export from the command line to set $PYTHONPATH for your
current session. You may have trouble with scripts run from the web (via
cgi-bin), but those problems are easy enough to work around generally,
especially if you've ever used shared hosting elsewhere.
If you want the modules installed globally, you can file a ticket in JIRA:
<https://jira.toolserver.org>. River mentioned something about some modules
being unavailable for a short period on this list recently. Dunno what the
status of that is.
If you learn (or have) some new tricks or tips, feel free to update
