indeed @cxrodgers you are correct. Do you want to make a pull request to fix this.
ps: @pavanramkumar this is also probably the reason you were struggling with the installation the other day
@jasmainak I created the PR. Note that the same instruction appears in the Makefile but I don't understand Makefiles so I didn't make any changes there.

Oops I merged too soon then :) But yeah I think the Makefile
should be modified as well.
The README says to install with this command: python setup.py develop install
But I have always used this: python setup.py develop
Source: https://avolkov.github.io/installing-python-packages-in-development-mode.html
At least for me, the command in the README did not work -- I got "ImportError: No module named externals.six" -- but
python setup.py develop
did work. For what it is worth, I use python2 and conda to manage my installations, so this might change things.Is there a reason to prefer
python setup.py develop install
in the README?
