Hmm - that looks to be an issue importing the built-in module ctypes which comes with the standard lib. I wonder if there's some issue with your python install? You could try opening a terminal, then typing python3 to start the python interpreter, then type import ctypes and see if it reports the same error. If so - then it's not an issue with ProperTree, but likely with your python install or local env.

Alternatively, if others have the same issue, I can wrap the ctypes import in a try/except to catch errors - but since it's a built-in module, that shouldn't be needed.
