ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'clips._clips'

On Windows Server 2016, python 3.7, importing clips gives me the below error, no matter if installed using pip install clipspy or built by myself.

PS C:\tmp\clipspy> python

Looking at the traceback, it seems you are still importing from C:\tmp\clipspy which is where you temporarily built clipspy and not the installation location.

Are you sure you are setting the right Python import path?

EDIT: nevermind, it seem you are executing the interpreter from C:\tmp\clipspy. The Python interpreter prefers the CWD when it comes to importing modules. You need to either run the interpreter from another CWD or set the PYTHONPATH accordingly.
