In Ubuntu geard is provided by python3-gear package.

python3-gear is:

python-gear is a pure-Python asynchronous library to interface with Gearman.

It provides interfaces to build a client or worker, and access to the administrative protocol. The design approach is to keep it simple, with a relatively thin abstration of the Gearman protocol itself. It should be easy to use to build a client or worker that operates either synchronously or asynchronously.

The module also provides a simple Gearman server for use as a convenience in unit tests. The server is not designed for production use under load.

Installing the suggested python-statsd package would add support for reporting to statsd a frontend to Graphite a stats collection and graphing server.
