So I tried to install it with "python setup.py install" with a config file in the same folder as the setup.py file. But this time I get errors when the setup file tries to access "pdal/plang/Array.hpp".

The PDAL Python bindings require that PDAL is installed. The PDAL Python bindings is not the mechanism to load data into pgpointcloud, however. There are many on the PDAL mailing list who can help with the details of that task. 

Please attempt to get PDAL going and use the writers.pgpointcloud PDAL stage to write data into pgpointcloud as the docs in that project describe. Please ask any follow up questions by joining the PDAL mailing list https://www.pdal.io/community.html <https://www.pdal.io/community.html>
