Apparently some of the dependencies refer to (old?) versions which are not Python 3 compatible. I'll see if I can get bottom of this.

I can reproduce this with python3, thank you for the find.

Thanks. See the related pull request :)

Python 3.x updates were just merged into master. Closing this :)
