I get the exact same error message and I don't understand how I can install the library with the changed file

Not sure which device you are on, but in my case (Raspbian Buster, Raspberry Pi 2B) this did the trick for me:

aptitude install python3-dev
aptitude install libcwiid-dev libcwiid1
pip install wheel

BUT... you will probably be running into #7 afterwards.

Similar issue here, its failing to build the wheel, running this on an X64 desktop running Ubuntu, however.
