Thanks for the link. However, as I have searched on this topic, I have learned that it is customary for the developer to supply not only an install process BUT also an uninstall process. Less chance for beginners like me to screw up the OS....RDK

The solution is to work in virtual environments using the pip they provide and not install into your OS at all (neither with sudo/root nor --user, not with easy_install nor with setup.py directly). See https://bit.ly/py-env for a quick overview of virtual environments.

Sadly lots of libraries provide bad documentation on how to install things, including this one. See #45.
