Cannot install in Python3: error: ‘_BUFRFile_BUFRFileEntryObject’ has no member named ‘ob_type’

[gerritholl]

bufr fails to install in my configuration due to errors involving … has no member named ‘ob_type’. I believe this is a Python2→Python3 problem, so it boils down to supporting Python3. Below is the output I get trying to build bufr:
