cannot import name '__version__' #72

I just installed pyscreenshot but while I tried to run it - there seems to be some problem with importing 'version' from Pillow. Anyone has experienced this before? Any advice/suggestion will be appreciated! Thank you :)

How did you install it? There is no such code line in pil.py:

from PIL import version
