pip install does not create full splunk-sdk-python parent directory

When I pip install the splunk-sdk, it only creates a /splunklib directory.

But, the READme on GitHub mentions adding the parent /splunk-sdk-python directory to PYTHONPATH, and some of the example snippets import code from the sibling utils module, neither of which exist via pip install. Is this the expected behavior and/or should the examples be updated?

I am using Mac OSX High Sierra with Python 3.7, installed via Anaconda.
