Whoops, looks like I reported this on Issue #115 but this is the same thing. Looks like we're trying to use Python 3 with something that was written for Python 2

mentioned this on #115 aswell: pip install --upgrade https://github.com/ozgur/python-linkedin/tarball/master seems to solve the issue.

This helped for me and I could import the linkedin package.
