Thank you for the valuable tip. In fact, I've checked the above
package and find that it's just a very outdated clone - the recent
commit was done on Jul 23, 2014 - of the original package by C. Gohlke
located here:

https://pypi.org/project/transformations/

And also see the author's website for more information:

https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/

I'll do some further inspections based this package and communicate
with the author if necessary.

Thanks again for your helpful notes.

Regards,
HY
