Public bug reported:

Pyro4 in Ubuntu does not depend on any package besides python3. If you
install it and start with the simple python script:

import Pyro4
d = Pyro4.Daemon()

It stops with the error that "serpent" is not available, which is the default 
serializer for Pyro4.
Serpent is available via PyPi (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/serpent).

Have a look at
https://pythonhosted.org/Pyro4/clientcode.html#serialization - here is
everything explained.

Ideally, it should be packaged and added as dependency of Pyro4.

As other possibility, if you don't want to do that, please patch Pyro4 to NOT 
use serpent as default serializer. json is included, so it IMHO could be safely 
used.
Better would be adding serpent as Ubuntu package.
