Everything goes smoothly following the examples on the website until the step where you have to install aard-tools with "pip install aardtools" where you get this error:

layoutengine.cpp: In function ‘void _init_layoutengine(PyObject*)’:

layoutengine.cpp:551:5: error: ‘kTypoFlagKern’ is not a member of ‘icu_44::LayoutEngine’

layoutengine.cpp:552:5: error: ‘kTypoFlagLiga’ is not a member of ‘icu_44::LayoutEngine’

error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

----------------------------------------
Command /home/user/env-aard/bin/python -c "import setuptools;__file__='/home/user/env-aard/build/PyICU/setup.py';exec(compile(open(__file__).read().replace('\r\n', '\n'), __file__, 'exec'))" install --single-version-externally-managed --record /tmp/pip-4wWS0O-record/install-record.txt --install-headers /home/user/env-aard/include/site/python2.7 failed with error code 1

Any advice on what could be going wrong with the installation?
