Issue installing on macOS: pyBigWig.c:6:10: fatal error: 'values.h' file not found

[kevlarr]

I've gone through all other closed issues and none have resolved. I have pybigWig==0.3 in my requirements file and am installing via pip install . -e '.[dev]' in a virtual environment, and am seeing this when trying to build:

    pyBigWig.c:6:10: fatal error: 'values.h' file not found

I don't know how to troubleshoot building C dependencies, and even cloning the repo I can't find a reference to "values.h" anywhere, so I'm not sure what I might be missing.

Full output below:

This was fixed in version 0.3.1. I strongly encourage you to use a more recent version than 0.3.0.

@dpryan79 Whoops, my mistake - sorry about that. I totally missed that I'd written ==0.3 instead of ~=0.3
