How do I resolve this pip error for python3?

I'm trying to install the textract module on Mac.

I used these commands to try and install it.

sudo python3 -m pip install textract   
python3 -m pip install textract
pip3 install textract
sudo pip3 install textract

I use pip3 since I have multiple versions of python installed on my device.

Every time, I get the following error:

Command "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/bin/python3
-u -c "import setuptools, tokenize;__file__='/private/tmp/pip-install-ejk7ayox/pocketsphinx/setup.py';f=getattr(tokenize, 'open', open)(__file__);code=f.read().replace('\r\n', '\n');f.close();exec(compile(code, __file__, 'exec'))" install
--record /private/tmp/pip-record-o8jq5l_l/install-record.txt --single-version-externally-managed --compile" failed with error code 1 in /private/tmp/pip-install-ejk7ayox/pocketsphinx/

Following the advice here, I tried:

python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip 
python3 -m pip3 install --upgrade pip
sudo pip3 install -U setuptools
pip3 install --upgrade pip3

Pip and setup tools are both up to date and I still get the error.
