@bluesmoon I guess there are a few things I have to fix for Python 3. Hopefully, I will be able to work on Python 3 support next week. Just improving the error message is not something I will be content with ;-).

Python 2.7 is a good start ;-). But I agree that Python 3 support makes for a brilliant feature.

We are unable to use python 2.7 due to other dependencies on 3.4.

Also, attempting to install on 3.4 gives the following error:

Might be useful to at the very least provide a better error message.
