I am using Python for making a script to work with some chemical structures
in my PhD. I want to install openbabel libraries for python. I tried my best
but I could not install it on Windows. I posted a question earlier about
installing it on Windows at
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/42151301/how-do-i-install-openbabel-for-python-3-6-in-windows-10/42151551?noredirect=1#comment71470260_42151551
but could not find a solution. The solution installed the library but it
does not work and could not connect to SWIG.
No I am trying to install it on my office computer which is a mac for past 5
hours but I could not figure what is going on.
I tried to install it from source code of Openbabel and link it with python3
but it is making problem.
If I use the following command:
`cmake ../ -DPYTHON_BINDINGS=ON -DRUN_SWIG=ON`
It successfully links it to Python 2.7 which I do not want. When I try the
following options, it gives the error shown below:
`cmake ../ -DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE=/usr/bin/python3 -DPYTHON_BINDINGS=ON
-DRUN_SWIG=ON`
OR
`cmake ../ -DRUN_SWIG=ON -DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE=/usr/bin/python3
-DPYTHON_INCLUDE_DIR=/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/include/python3.5m
-DPYTHON_LIBRARY=/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/lib/libpython3.5m.dylib
-DPYTHON_BINDINGS=ON`
It gives the following error at the end after a lot of successful output:
-- Found PythonInterp: /usr/bin/python3.6 (found version "1.4")
-- Found SWIG: /usr/local/bin/swig (found version "3.0.12")
-- Found SWIG: /usr/local/bin/swig (found suitable version "3.0.12",
minimum required is "2.0")

I am not sure why It detects the Python as v1.4 `-- Found PythonInterp:
/usr/bin/python3.6 (found version "1.4") ` instead of finding v.3.5.
I tried all the procedure with python 3.6 as well but the same errors occur.
I am also using the openbabel obtained from github which was said to be
working with these commands at the following post:
http://forums.openbabel.org/OpenBabel-for-Python-3-td4659432.html
But it doesn't work as well.
Please help me as I require this module for my research.
Thanks
