tendril-dox-labelmaker can be installed normally from the Python Package Index. Note that you will need write access to your python packages folder. This means you will have to install as root or with sudo on most linux distributions, unless you are installing to a virtual environment you can write to.

$ pip install tendril-dox-labelmaker

  • six

  • tendril-utils-core

sudo may be necessary if you are not installing into a virtual environment.
