While running make install I got the following error

ImportError: failed to find libmagic. Check your installation

I installed libmagic and it seems to work.

Should libmagic be in the README as a requirement?

Thanks

how did u install libmagic? can you lookup how to install python package magic for macOS? Maybe that requirement is something special for macOS?

What I did is the following:

brew install libmagic
pip install python-magic

That seems to have worked! Thanks
