Cleaning up...

Storing debug log for failure in /Users/jrwren/.pip/pip.log

Looks like a dependency, cheetah, is not python 3 compatible.

I just hit the same issue on xenial

This was because we did not have a good enough Python in precise. But given we're dropping support and moving to snaps I'll move this project to py3 (and help shake out any deps)
