Yes in hindsight it does. I downloaded the package and manually
followed the instructions:
python2 setup.py install
for Python 2 and:
python3 setup.py build install
for Python 3. I didn't try the former but the latter doesn't work for me
run manually, it gives the same error message. I can't believe that a
package would have got into PyPI without being able to be installed for
Python 3 at least on Windows and Mac OS X, perhaps this is not the case.

decode is a method of bytearray in Python3, __doc__ is a string. I
tried editing the setup.py to remove the decode() as not being necessary
in Python 3 and it seems to work.
So I don't see how this has ever worked for anyone :-(
I will push this problem upstream.
