This happened when I installed from source.

@reeshabhranjan Please run Python from anywhere other than the python-netfilterqueue directory. When you're in that directory, import netfilterqueue locates ./netfilterqueue rather than /usr/local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/netfilterqueue. The compiled module is only installed in the latter location.

Alternatively, you can run python3 setup.py build_ext to build the extension in ./netfilterqueue also.
