Hi bob123,
Finally I have managed to run Electrum 3.2.3 from its folder by installing the following Debian packages:
python3-dnspython
python3-pyaes
python3-ecdsa
python3-qrcode
python3-google-apputils
python3-protobuf
python3-jsonrpclib-pelix
python3-socks
The above packages are sufficient to run Electrum 3.2.3 from its folder.
Thank goodness I have avoided installing the package python3-pip (per instruction on Electrum's download page) because it pulls many other packages, including build-essential, fakeroot, gcc++-6, gcc, etc.

You need to install protobuf via pip.
So:
Code:
pip3 install --user protobuf
bob123, I didn't have to install so many Debian packages when I was using Electrum 3.2.2 and prior releases.

I would suggest to use the --user option (pip3 install --user
I believe it should be dnspython.
What is the name of the module?

Use python3 to run electrum and to install packages.
So, isntead of running:
You have to run either:
to install systemwide, or:
or
to install it inside your home directory.

My OS is Debian Stretch and I have downloaded Electrum-3.2.3.tar.gz
According to README.rst:
When I did that, the following message appeared:
I installed the package python3-dns and the same error remained.
Next, I uninstalled python3-dns and installed the package python3-dnspython and had the same error. I have now unistalled python3-dnspython.
For the record, I did not have such problems when using version 3.2.2 or earlier releases. Version 3.2.3 must have introduced some new features.
Help to resolve the above issue is much appreciated.
