Import Error undefined symbol: PyUnicode_AsUTF8 #116

Hello (disclaimer first post on Github),

I got an import error when trying to use this package with a raspberry pi model 3b with Raspbian:

ImportError: /home/pi/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mercury.so: undefined symbol: PyUnicode_AsUTF8

Seems similar to the issue described here but was not able to solve this yet:

https://github.com/gotthardp/python-mercuryapi/issues/28

Any ideas to point me in the right direction?

Thanks!

Quick update after continued trouble shooting:

import was successful when specifying python3 when running python script. Could there be a compatibility issue with python 2? It seems like this package should be able to work on both
