hashlib is new in Python 2.5 (see http://docs.python.org/library/hashlib.html).

I haven't found documentation about the minimal requirements for Pinax, but it 
seems
that django_openid.consumer requires Python 2.5.

Yes, I am aware of this actually. I have temporarily patched at (along with 
other fixes we needed) http://github.com/brosner/django-openid/tree/master. 
Pinax has 2.4 support, but this is one of the trunk 
blockers for complete support. I am not sure if there are others. Thanks for 
bringing this up we should report an 
issue with django-openid.

This is not a Pinax issue nor one we can patch locally unfortunately.
