Apparently the Python version I have is 3.6.3, and I get an error saying this version is not compatible. I don't know how to solve this. Please help. Thanks.
Ok, this is an issue with our code, its supposed to work, but there's an error in the code that checks what versions are allowed, we were supposed to put 3.6.3 in there, but accidetnally put 3.6.2 twice. So sorry about that, we're going to patch this and put it in the next release.
So, short version is that we know the issue, how to fix it and that its actually been coded into the next version. The long version is that, I am not 100% sure when we'll be releasing 0.1.6. We're doing our best but its slow going at the moment. One other option is to try and see if you can run a blender version that requires 3.6.2 not 3.6.3. I'm currently running the 2.79b official release on macos and its only at 3.5.3, so not sure why linux mint requires 3.6.3, that seems like a daily build perhaps?
You could try using the official 2.79b release and see if its python is 3.5.3 or 3.6.2, those should work. You can tell which python is used by simply opening blender and switching the view to "scripting", you'll see the python window open and the version is written on the first line like so:
PYTHON INTERACTIVE CONSOLE 3.5.3 (default, May 29 2017, 11:05:36) [GCC 4.2.1 Compatible Apple LLVM 6.0 (clang-600.0.57)]
