Scrapy install in virtualenv - cant resolve issue. looks related to lxml?

Question

Good day! I'm pretty new to python/scrapy as in never tried it. I've been able to work through a lot of the issues I've come across but I'm stuck trying to resolve "Running setup.py bdist_wheel for lxml ... error" I can't seem to get past it. I've tried to "pip3 install lxml" but that fails. I could past the whole terminal text but that is almost 500 lines. What would be helpful to provide enough info to resolve.

OS 10.11.6

Any help would be great! I'm anxious to try out scrapy! Nick

Maybe I should enter my response here! :) I have been able to install other packages. I've started over a couple of times so I'm working in a "fresh" virtualenv

Answer 1

from user stanac, async and await are keywords in python 3.7. so even after I was able to install scrapy successfully, i couldn't run bench or shell (testing install) without throwing errors. installed a virtualenv targeting 2.7 and installed and ran bench/shell with no issues.
