Import keras.datasets not working

Question

I have keras installed on my linux machine, but when I try to import a dataset from the keras.datasets I get an error that it cannot find it.

So for example:

from keras.datasets import mnist

I get the error

ImportError: No module named keras.datasets

I installed keras using pip install and it installed successfully.

Do you have keras.py or keras.pyc in the current working directory? If so, this will mess up the imports. Try renaming the file and/or deleting keras.pyc.
