I am using a Raspberry Pi 2 B and attempting the project on the following website: https://learn.adafruit.com/raspberry-pi-face-recognition-treasure-box/overview
However when I try to run the file "capture-positives.py", I get an error when trying to import the GPIO. I have tried updating the GPIO and removing and installing a fresh copy, however I keep getting the same error. I have a feeling it has to do with me using a Raspberry Pi 2 rather than a 1. Is there anyway to solve this error?
Update:
Left out the error section by mistake this is the error :

The script (or more precisely, the hardware.py
-module) uses the RPIO module which has seen it's last release 2013 (https://github.com/metachris/RPIO), and thus doesn't support the RPi2. You can either
