<p>Personally I would install via Anaconda3 and skip a direct Python3 installation altogether. The answer above recommends using homebrew, again personally I wouldn't touch it and go straight for a full Anaconda3 installation. You might be able to install via</p>

<pre><code>conda install -c XXX sigproextractor
</code></pre>

<p>Where XXX is the channel, but its certainly on github. Anaconda3 is very easy to install.</p>
