yes, unfortunately the installer doesn't work in python3. I'm aware of the problem and hope to have a fix as soon as I can find the time.

This worked for me (tested only on Python 3.6.4):

Comment out the following line in setup.py:

execfile('PageObjectLibrary/version.py')

and replace with the below.

exec(open('PageObjectLibrary/version.py').read())

if you need setup.py to be compatible with both 2.x and 3.x, add the following to setup.py (tested only on Python 3.6.4):

# N.B. to push a new version to PyPi, update the version number
# in rfhub/version.py and then run 'python setup.py sdist upload'
import sys
from setuptools import setup

if sys.version_info[0] > 2:
	exec(open('PageObjectLibrary/version.py').read())	
else:	
	execfile('PageObjectLibrary/version.py')

setup(
    name             = 'robotframework-pageobjectlibrary',
    version          = __version__,
    author           = 'Bryan Oakley',
    author_email     = 'bryan.oakley@gmail.com',
    url              = 'https://github.com/boakley/robotframework-pageobjectlibrary/',
    keywords         = 'robotframework',
    license          = 'Apache License 2.0',
    description      = 'RobotFramework library that implements the Page Object pattern',
    long_description = open('README.md', encoding='latin-1').read(),
    zip_safe         = True,
    include_package_data = True,
    install_requires = ['robotframework', 'robotframework-selenium2library', 'selenium', 'six'],

@itsanjan, the corrected "setup.py" is in a fork by @andrewordiales. You can manually add the changes I suggested, or go to @andrewordiales Github page: Fork
