For a detailed explanation of the changes that I made in setup.py, xfluxcontroller.py and fluxapp.py see here and here respectively.
I do not know if setup() can do the same as the if that I added to beginning of setup.py to install the xflux executable corresponding to the processor architecture (if so feel free to make the appropriate change). I could also have done the same using platform.architecture() instead of sys.maxsize but chose the latter method due to the next thing that I quote from here:
Note: On Mac OS X (and perhaps other platforms), executable files may be universal files containing multiple architectures.
To get at the “64-bitness” of the current interpreter, it is more reliable to query the sys.maxsize attribute:
is_64bits = sys.maxsize > 2**32
