Appengine mercurial error

I am trying to deploy mercurial for google app engine and keep getting this error. Please see if anyone has a solution.

<type 'exceptions.ImportError'>: No module named pwd

maybe one of these projects will be of use?

You can't access the unix password database in the App Engine sandbox, so the pwd module isn't installed.

In general, many random python modules will require extensive hacking to get them to run on App Engine.

The simplest way is remove import pwd. Because when you run on GAE, you don't need this module.
