[pubsub] 'module' object has no attribute 'Client'

See original GitHub issue

I have been using pubsub for a while but after updating it, I am getting AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'Client'

I am following this example from the official docs:

I have already uninstalled and reinstalled it (and the entire dependency tree) many times.

Thanks @tseaver, reinstalling the packages (and downgrading google-cloud-pubsub to 0.27) did the trick. Apparently pubsub.Client was removed in 0.28

I would double check that you are not being hosed by a pip / setuptools whack-a-mole bug due to namespace packages, recently fixed (again):

$ pip install -U setuptools pip
