Hi Russel,
from your log I see:
from ConfigParser import SafeConfigParser
ImportError: No module named 'ConfigParser'
That is odd, I don't know how this got broken - but that is part of a completely different package.
Maybe some custom local python setup that breaks this?
I'd recommend following some older guides around just this issue like [1].
Bug 1618666 suggests that this python module was renamed and it seems your systems packages are in some kind of version mismatch - which would also suggest a broken custom python setup as the reason.
