Not able install pywafo

[maheshreshwa]

Hello,
I am trying to install pywafo in Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS, but not able to install it. I created a virtual environment with Python 2.7 and Anaconda as I cant install the Python 2.6 version presently due to compatibility issues.

when i try to run, python setup.py bdist_wheel -d dist
i get the following error. Kindly help me, how can i install pywafo?

(extreme-py2) mahesh@Mahesh:~/pywafo$ python setup.py bdist_wheel -d dist
