I'm getting the same error on macOS ventura with python 3.11. Installing from PyPI seems to be broken. Scroll down for a workaround.

The issue:

Using apple clang version 14.0.3.

I also tried:

➜ git clone https://github.com/Martinsos/edlib.git
➜ cd edlib/bindings/python
➜ pip install .

It first failed because README.rst could not be found. I commented out the relevant section in setup.py and tried again:

I got it to work this way (in edlib/bindings/python):
