Error to import gmmreg: No module named '_extension'

[tugcetasci]

Hi,
after changing some line for python3 compatibility with 2to3 package (mainly print commands) and installing the package through the readme:
python setup.py build
python setup.py install

When I try to import gmmreg it gives me the following error. Would you please help me with this?

Python 3.6.6 |Anaconda custom (64-bit)| (default, Jun 28 2018, 17:14:51)
[GCC 7.2.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

import gmmreg
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in

You get this error when the build was not successfully completed. I could never make it work for Python3.
Have a look here. #5

FYI, now there is a new repo for the Python implementation of gmmreg.
https://github.com/bing-jian/gmmreg-python
And this one should work for Python 3. If not, please let me know. Thanks!

Hi, I have followed the build instructions in the new repo. The setup/install line executes without any errors, but when I try to import gmmreg I still get the 'ModuleNotFound' message:

>>> import gmmreg
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'gmmreg'

Is there anything I am missing? I am working with Python 3.6.9 (GCC 8.3.0). Thanks in advance for any response!

Sorry. Jorge-Quesada, I missed your question. Is the problem you reported for the gmmreg-python repo or this repo?
