Out of curiosity I downloaded the tarball and did a pip install . after exploding it. It install that way, but this warning showed up in the process

WARNING: Ignoring special file error '../aiowhois-0.1.0/aiowhois/data/.notifier is a named pipe' encountered copying ../aiowhois-0.1.0/aiowhois/data/.notifier to /var/folders/_n/lybftmq54dzfgqz8q_6bj1140000gq/T/pip-req-build-zo71g37m/aiowhois/data/.notifier.

double checking the tar file I could see the name pipe. Trying a pip install aiowhois-0.1.0.tar.gz resulted in the same exception. Expanding the archive, removing the named pipe, re-taring it, and then installing from the new tar file succeeded. Looks like the named pipe is the problem.
