That module isn't part of the Python standard library.  I don't think we 
should introduce a dependency on it; rather, any use of it should be 
appropriately conditional, so the code still runs (without these checks) 
if the module is unavailable (importing produces an ImportError).

In particular, even if the OS Python installation includes that module, 
the script should work with a separately built copy of Python without any 
such modules from the OS.

Why is dnsutils needed?
