Have you tried pip install pyserial? It worked for me
i certainly did try that! it said
Requirement already satisfied: pyserial in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages (3.4)
(i have it installed for python3) but it still doesn't load in python2.7
I asked in IRC ##linuxmint and I was told "can confirm it's discontinued,
you might be able to get the package at snapshot.debian.org"
what linux are you running?
thank you
