Hello,

Currently trying to install slycot in conjunction with control.

No issues installing the control library in both Python2 and Python3.

While running sudo pip[3] install slycot, I get the following output:

Collecting slycot

I'd really like to know if this is a local issue and how to resolve it because I'm having issues using the main controls library because of errors related to needing slycot:

/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/control/statefbk.py in lqr(*args, **keywords)
    313         from slycot import sb02mt
    314     except ImportError:
--> 315         raise ControlSlycot("can't find slycot module 'sb02md' or 'sb02nt'")
    316 
    317     #

ControlSlycot: can't find slycot module 'sb02md' or 'sb02nt'

Thanks!
