Cannot import release from networkx

Question

I'm trying to import release from networkx but I got the error below on ipython notebook. I have networkx installed successfully. Could anyone help?

Code:

import networkx as nx
from networkx import release
print "NetworkX version:     %6.6s (need at least 1.7)" % nx.__version__

Error:

I had the same error when importing networkx 1.9.1. Simply reinstalling fixed the issue.

pip uninstall networkx && pip install networkx
