ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'eval_util'

Following the steps in README for running locally, I'm running into an error:

$ ls
youtube-8m
$ gcloud ai-platform local train \
> --package-path=youtube-8m --module-name=youtube-8m.train -- \
> --train_data_pattern='gs://youtube8m-ml/2/frame/train/train*.tfrecord' \
> --train_dir=/tmp/yt8m_train --frame_features --model=FrameLevelLogisticModel \
> --feature_names='rgb,audio' --feature_sizes='1024,128' --start_new_model
Traceback (most recent call last):

    "__main__", mod_spec)

  File "/Users/gorkem/kaggle/yt8m/code/youtube-8m/train.py", line 20, in <module>
    import eval_util
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'eval_util'

Later, adding the directory youtube-8m to PYTHONPATH solves the problem for me, but that probably isn't the intended usage.
