Installing from PyPI seems to not work

Installing using pip and git does work fine however... See the output below.

Yes, I know the problem. I need to make a new release (basically setuptools changed since the last release), but this is blocked because OSX CI has been failing for a while (see discussion starting at #24 (comment)) and I can't fix it locally.

0.3 has been released on PyPI. Please give it a try.

Seems to be fixed. Thanks!
