Error installing Python Polyglot package by Pip

Question

I am trying to install this package/module by Pip and I am not able to find the solution. Follows Traceback:

C:\Users\chris>pip install polyglot
Collecting polyglot
  Using cached polyglot-16.7.4.tar.gz
    Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:
    Traceback (most recent call last):
        File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
        File "C:\Users\chris\AppData\Local\Temp\pip-build-4kfxalco\polyglot\setup.py", line 15, in <module>
         readme = readme_file.read()
        File "c:\users\chris\appdata\local\programs\python\python35-32\lib\encodings\cp1252.py", line 23, in decode
         return codecs.charmap_decode(input,self.errors,decoding_table)[0]
    UnicodeDecodeError: 'charmap' codec can't decode byte 0x81 in position 4941: character maps to <undefined>

----------------------------------------
Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in C:\Users\chris\AppData\Local\Temp\pip-build-4kfxalco\polyglot\

What’s going on? I’ve done these operations before:

• python -m pip install --upgrade pip
• pip install setuptools
• pip install setuptools --upgrade
• pip install ez_setup

Pip has a Unicode bug that hasn’t been fixed yet. You’ll need to download the source and install the .egg, thus:
