[Twisted-Python] FW: No module names "twisted.names" due to confuse twisted-core library folder

Thanks for reply. I passed the problem with the below approach;
Why am I getting ImportErrors for Twisted subpackages on my 64bit
installation of RedHat/Fedora/CentOS?
Red Hat and derived Linux distributions arrange to have certain Python
libraries installed in /usr/lib/ and
other parts installed in /usr/lib64/.
This is problematic for Twisted, since it results in some of Twisted
being installed in one directory and the rest installed in another.
Python will load a package from only one directory.
You can override this default behavior when you install Twisted by
supplying the --install-lib parameter when running Twisted's setup.py.

This is due to a bug in the local distutils configuration of your Linux
distribution which causes it to select incorrect installation targets
and does not let you override these choices. You should report the bug
Meanwhile, you can solve the problem by:
1) Use the platform-supplied packages of Twisted instead of installing
your own version from source
2) Install Twisted instead of Twisted Core and Twisted Names
These are both good ideas anyway, disregarding your current particular
installation problem. If possible, do them both.
