On Ubuntu 16.04 to install using python 3.5 you need to modify the setup.py otherwise you end up with a .so file which only works with python 2. I'm not a python expert so it took me a short while to figure this out - this small addition to the README might be helpful for others too.
Thanks! I rewrote the README a little differently. The more canonical way is to run python build.py (or python3 build.py). Does the current version make sense to you?
