The basic problem here is the package has non-Python dependencies. Those 
can't be expressed in metadata for the package on PyPI (at least not in 
an actionable way), leaving you responsible for installing them by other 
means.  The project's documentation should, presumably, have some 
information on this.

A quick glance shows this project has likely gone stale, the last 
release activity was in 2021.
