Python 3.5.1 Cannot download Robot Framework library

I'm new to Python and I'm trying to automate a test with Robot Framework. When I tried downloading the library via pip I ran into some issues. I'm using Python 3.5.1, Robot Framework 3.0, PyCharm 2016.1(64),

Output for command pip install robotframework-selenium2library: Collecting robotframework-selenium2library Using cached robotframework-selenium2library-1.7.4.tar.gz Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info: Downloading http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/d/distribute/distribute-0.6.14.tar.gz Extracting in C:\Users\Radek\AppData\Local\Temp\tmpooendh2g Traceback (most recent call last): File "c:\users\radek\appdata\local\programs\python\python35\lib\site-packages\ez_setup.py", line 143, in use_setuptools raise ImportError ImportError During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

----------------------------------------

Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in C:\Users\Radek\AppData\Local\Temp\pip-build-gh4jw21a\robotframework-selenium2library\

Setuptools are up-to-date, so is ez_setup

C:\Users\Radek>pip install --upgrade setuptools Requirement already up-to-date: setuptools in c:\users\radek\appdata\local\programs\python\python35\lib\site-packages C:\Users\Radek>pip install ez_setup Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): ez-setup in c:\users\radek\appdata\local\programs\python\python35\lib\site-packages

Selenium2Library is not (yet) compatible with Python 3.x.

We have a Pull Request (github.com/robotframework/Selenium2Library/pull/564) to have Selenium2Library compatible with all Python versions, but it is not in the official Release, and it was tested with Python 2.6, 2.7 and 3.4.

I you want to install you could try github.com/HelioGuilherme66/robotframework-selenium2library/releases/tag/v1.8.0b1 For example with: pip install -U --pre https://github.com/HelioGuilherme66/robotframework-selenium2library/archive/v1.8.0b1.zip
