carrot.utils - cannot import _uuid_generate_random - python 2.7.11

[ericpershey]

Line 1 of carrot/utils.py imports _uuid_generate_random which no longer exists in python 2.7.11. I am running python 2.7.11 on Windows 10 currently.

Possible code to fix.
try:
from uuid import _uuid_generate_random
except ImportError:
_uuid_generate_random = None
... import other stuff

I guess the library is still available under python2.7 the docs
It does not tell deprecated or not in development. You need to install this correctly.
There might be unavailibility of official version in 16.04
but you can always try unofficial ports of uuid. You may try this for help.
Thank you. 😸 😸
