Please upgrade pip and try again

pip install --upgrade pip

pip shouldn't have tried to build the wheel but used the windows wheel from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/DoubleMetaphone

There might also be some anaconda nonsense going on too.

I have just migrated from Python 2.7 -> Python 3.6 on Windows 10. I have the identical error. I have the most recent version of pip. Any other suggestions?

Ditto here. Pip is updated. I'm using the latest python 3 ot Anaconda Also tried directly downloading the whl file and installation via commandline, with the same error. I also downloaded each py36 version of DoubleMetaphone wheels, none f which are apparently a "supported wheel on this platform."
