Problem installing from setup.py

[BitResolution]

Hi

I'm on Mac OS X 10.13 (and don't really want to upgrade if possible as it causes problems for other software) and python 2.7.16

When I try and execute the setup.py install part of the installation process I get the following error:

Any help would be appreciated.

You might have already found the solution to your problem but I'll put this here for other people: sudo pip install --user --upgrade setuptools or sudo pip3 install --user --upgrade setuptools should fix that error. Which command you use depends on which version of python you're using. Sudo can be optional but you'll most likely need to use it.
