$ which swig # check that swig is installed
/usr/local/bin/swig
$ pip install git+https://github.com/toltec-astro/szpack_wrapperBehind the scene, the SZpack v1.1.1 is bundled with this package in the szpack_wrapper/extern folder, and an accompanying setup_package.py file is used to leverage the extension-helpers to build the code as a C extension.
