Hi
I try to follow the GenBank tortorila from the Biopython Tutorial and 
Cookbook and I get the following error messages:
auyeung at sunday auyeung]$ python

 >>> gi_list = GenBank.search_for("Opuntia AND rpl16")
 >>> record_parser = GenBank.FeatureParser()
 >>> ncbi_dict = GenBank.NCBIDictionary(parser = record_parser)
 >>> gb_seqrecord = ncbi_dict[gi_list[0]]

Any suggestion to fix the problem?
Thanks
