I received the following error when running pip2 install uwsgi-tasks:

It does not fail for Python 3.4

Oh, It was my falt to use distutils instead of setuptools. Could you please try release 0.4.4 from pypi? The issue should be fixed now.

I tried it for both python 2 and 3, and both worked perfectly. Thanks!
