I think this is your problem: https://github.com/py-bson/bson/issues/29

Try to install in a virtualenv mongotail to see what happens.

Another thing you can do is install and execute mongotail with Python 3 instead of Python 2, so if you don't have installed the bson library in Python 3, there will be no conflicts. You ca achieve this with: sudo pip3 install mongotail.

Let me know whether this worked for you or not.
