Yup. Hence the github url: https://github.com/petertodd/python-bitcoinlib :)

I didn't write the first version of it. But I took over maintainership from jgarzik many years ago and got it into a more useful shape.

Afaik there are no guides for installing it yet and there are some quirks with up/downgrading some crypto dependencies in Ubuntu (apt), other Linux distros and MacOS (brew). Are you aware of that?

I mean, installing python-bitcoinlib is just the usual pip3 install python-bitcoinlib

I recently made a new release that I think fixes the main crypto dependency issue with missing ripemd160 support.
